Best earplugs ever???

[PeriChristmas]

Please help!
Married to a VERY NOISY snorer.
Please point me in the direction of the best earplugs ever, before I need a divorce!! 😳🥺

Is separate bedrooms an option?

I use the 3m yellow ones when flying as I hate the engine and people noise

You do need to make sure you put them properly, roll them thinner, pop well into ear and hold in place until they expand fully.

I've got some Bollsen ear plugs which are really good. Would definitely recommend.

I use the same yellow ones as @BruceAndNosh although I buy them in bulk from ScrewFix. I’ve worn earplugs every night for 20+ years and these are the best I’ve had.

£3 silicon ones on eBay (the pink balls that mould to your ears) have to squeeze them right in but they're amazing.

I like the waxy ones you warm up and mould them as they cool, I get mine from a tiny back in the dark ages type chemist in the village!

Trust me

I like the foam ones - the slightly more cone shaped ones rather than the cylinder ones

As a pp said you need to roll them thin and then shove them in while thin and let them expand.

Boots Muffles definitely

It also helps to reach over your head and lift the top of your ear whilst you put them in- gets them in properly, which ever you choose!

I use these for my small ears:

Mack's Unisex's Dream Girl Ear Plugs (50 Pair)

I find the ball ones stick to my hair and I don't I understand how to use the wax ones at all!

Hush plugz silicone earplugs you can get them on amazon or from home bargains

Pharmacy wax ones. Twist two together into one for each ear. Put in the fridge until just before you wear them.

Howard leight. They're pink and yellow foam ones. Their used in riggs and heavy duty plant sites. They're the only earplugs I'll use.

Boots wax ones, you can’t hear an earthquake!

I got fed up with earplugs. I'd tried loads but found them uncomfortable. Now I have a Bluetooth sleeping mask with built in headphones and listen to thunder and rain through it. It doesn't block out the snoring but lessens it and gives me something else to listen to.

Quies silcone earplugs. Drown out next doors middle of night screaming kids and downstairs rap music playing teenager.

Foam ones come out of my ears no matter how carefully I insert them and if wax ones come out in the night it's like getting chewing gum out of my hair.

Yes but I miss him 😢

Boots Muffles

These ones. Buy a big bag of them.off Ebay. My dh uses them for drilling a work and I use them for my own snoring as I have sleep apnea

I second Howard Leight laserlite ear plugs off eBay. Our marriage couldn’t survive without them!

It's worth the price to pay to have custom moulded earplugs made. You can get them done at any Specsavers that have a hearing clinic.

They make moulds to fit your ears exactly and then you choose which type of earplug you want. I chose the soft kind for sleeping in. I've had them ten years and still going strong.

I love these.

Unfortunately no earplugs will block out a determined snorer as they max out at apps 40db and a half decent snorer is much louder. I recorded dh at 70db one night 😭

I use the Macks dream girl as recommended above, but mostly we have separate rooms otherwise we're both exhausted.

@GromblesofGrimbledon - are the custom moulded ones more comfortable? I ask because I use the foam ones occasionally but my ears get a bit sore from them.
