What kind of earplugs are good to block out husband's snoring?

Question by beargojbitty: What kind of earplugs are good to block out husband's snoring?
I will never get a good night's sleep unless it's on the couch. I nudge him when he snores, he stops for five minutes, and starts again. I tried the little disposable earplugs and they don't stay in. Any suggestions?

Sorry, I have tried many different versions and nothing-can completely block out noise. I still use the 33Db. reduction squeeze type. I make the plug into a narrow plug and immediately push it into the canal. This keeps most of the noise out. I also use a fan or white noise machine to mask the noise.

As to your hubby...does he also stop breathing, gasp, chock, have headaches, diabetes or high blood pressure. these are also signs of sleep apnea. HINT: a cpap machine will get rid of all hes snoring.

When I have friends over that snore, the sound bothers me a lot. How do I block out the sound?

I mean, other then ear plugs. They do muffle the sound, but not a lot. And for some reason, sound disrupts my sleep, since I have problemes falling asleep already. So are there more affecive ways to stop the sound from bothering me?

Quit inviting them over if it bothers you that much. If you have to have them over try playing some music or a head set or something.
