![]() Some sleep disorders involve making noise while sleeping. And if you live in the United States, the bricks and mortar store I’ve seen with the widest selection of earplugs recently is ACME. Some brands I recommend trying because they typically have high noise reduction ratings are Moldex, Howard Leight, Hearoes, Flents, Mack’s, 3M and Ear Buddy. So it’s definitely worth doing some of your own tests. The difference between earplugs that fit you well with a noise reduction rating of 33 decibels and earplugs that don’t quite fit and only have a noise reduction rating of 27 decibels is very significant. The thing is, there are many to choose from, so I usually recommend trying a few different brands and sizes if the ones you get first don’t do the job well enough. If you’re wondering which works best, my personal view is that it’s hard to beat a really good set of earplugs. From time to time, I use headphones or a white noise machine though.īelow, you’ll find my current recommendations for each of these: I’ll often wear earplugs because they tend to block out a lot of the noise where I live at the moment. But when someone else controls the noise source, it’s sometimes more fruitful to focus your efforts on reducing how much noise gets inside your head. I’m not suggesting giving up on trying to stop the noise at its source if you’re able to. If that doesn’t work, another technique is to mask it with something you find more relaxing, such as music, ambient sounds, or white noise. Sometimes your best chance for peace is to prevent as much of the noise as possible from reaching your ears. In this article, I’ll be sharing the techniques that have worked best for me personally, and suggesting ways that might help you either cut down the noise at night or at least reduce it to a tolerable level. ![]() It’s the main reason I’ve spent years testing earplugs, sound machines, and various other ways to create my own little oasis of silence. Noise has long been my nemesis when it comes to sleep. If your house has the dreaded combination of wooden floorboards and bad sound insulation, and people move around in the rooms above your bedroom, then you’re in for a whole world of noise problems if they stay up later or wake up earlier than you. But it’s not so easy to stop someone snoring or sleep through the roar of your neighbor’s all-night party.
