Boules Quies are great for blocking out the sounds that can wake you up at night. Rattling air conditioners, prancing housemates, or loud neighbors living above you, these earplugs will help bring the noise levels down and get you a better sleep.

They will also help quiet the sounds of a loud sleeping partner, though not all snoring may be masked.

But they probably won't be powerful enough to filter out high-decibel urban and suburban sounds, such as a car alarm, police siren, or a power lawnmower.

They are easy to insert--much easier for me than the foam ones, and once inside they are very malleable, since they are made of wax. This is nice because then I can wear them fairly loosely at night when there's no noise, and in the morning, after the squawk of the first Blue Jay, tighten them up and go back to sleep.

I also carry a pack of these when I'm traveling by air. They will eliminate most of the engine hum, and can transform a symphony of screaming babies into light background noise. (When the flight attendant comes by with your drink order, you can pull out one of the plugs half-way, or use your lip-reading skills).

I have been using these for 5 years to block the sound of my husband's snoring. Otherwise, I think our marriage would be on the rocks. I must have small ear canals or something, but foam ear plugs always make my ears hurt dreadfully. These block the sound very well, and are very comfortable.

I've been using wax earplugs for about 5 years and come back to this brand time and again. They're really comfortable and don't slip out like foam plugs. I get a great night's sleep with these!

These earplugs are a blessing in my life. They are comfortable, not too large and they block out every sound out there. I use them when I want to rest and my dogs are barking loudly or when either my wife or I want to watch television while they other rests.
This company always provides fast excellent service.

I don't know whether it was because of my purposes or what exactly, but these earplugs did not do enough sound blocking. I got them so I could lower my stress and being would concentrate what I need to working at home and studying, with the many children outside my window screaming into all hours, randomly. Here I sit, using my voice recording software, and in my nightly meetings... Wearing the earplugs, yet still on edge, distressed, as the children outside scream-I can still hear them almost clearly and yet, I don't hear myself as well with the earplugs in due to the slight "fuzz" sound, that could be the earplugs interacting with my earphones... I was hoping for a natural product earplug, but will keep looking. I will keep the box for use during travel etc.

While the soft cotton coating the wax ear plug is a very thoughtful addition to the product and does help a tiny bit with comfort, these earplugs simply do not block noise. Also - now I am stuck with two boxes nearly full of earplugs that do not work! The option to buy a smaller quantity would be nice.

If you need great earplugs to sleep with, these are the best; I've tried them all and these ones work really the best.

I had bought some earplugs overseas like these and new right then,That those are the only kind I would wear.Could not find them locally so went to my computer and saw these. They are very good and really keep things quiet.We sleep with three dogs in the bedroom,so these are a must. I will highly recommend these to everyone!

Details:
I can't get these to work. I have warmed with my palms and then molded with my fingers. They just won't fit in my ear.
The wax starts out as a hard little ball surrounded by cotton. The directions tell me to unwrap wax. Not all of it come off, but I am not worried. Then, i am supposed to warm the wax in my very clean fingers. After the wax is malleable enough, I am supposed to shape it to fit in my auditory canal.
Uh. Okay.
So, I try to mold. Doesn't work. Then I try to push in and spread the wax so it covers the opening of my auditory canal. No good. Finally, I smush the two together to make a normal-sized wax earplug. Nope.
Ironically, or maybe just sadly, there is a truck outside blasting music - I could sing along if I listened to bad music - and I can't get my earplugs to stay in my auditory canals so I am up writing this review.
