Frequently asking people to speak up also may indi cate hearing loss.” How can you tell if you need noise protection? “If you need to shout to be heard three feet away.„ the noise is too loud," Murphy said. “Reduce the noise level or wear hearing protection. Protect ing your hearing today can save you a lot of misery tomorrow.” Even though surveys show farmers recognize the hazards of excessive noise, they rarely use hearing protection. “Some farmers believe that ear protection is in convenient, unhandy, or too time consuming,” Murphy said. “It may take some getting used to, but the benefits far outweigh any in- BUY.

On average, these devices reduce noise volume by about 25 decibels, They are available from health and safety catalogs, drug and sporting goods stores, or through licensed audiologists. When choosing hearing protec tion, consider cost, comfort, and effectiveness. “Muffs are comfort able for longer wearing times but are not effective when obstructed by glasses or hats.” Murphy said. “Hearing plugs are less noticeable than muffs and are small enough to fit in a pocket” Disposable ear plugs may cost less than $l. Muffs cost from $5 to $BO. “Disposable plugs are con venient but can become expen sive if used regularly,” he said. “Reusable plugs or muffs are a better choice for frequent wear ers.” Activities such as shooting guns, listening to loud music, or attending loud concerts and sport ing events also can damage your hearing.
