Ear cleaning - how do you do it?

[Denise & Hunter!!!]

Hello!  I am really looking for advice on how to clean Hunter's ears.  I am not sure about the "plucking" the hair from the inside...  I use an ear cleaner that you just put in their ears but I am unsure about what and how to do anything else.  I have had such bad grooming experiences the more I can do the better :-)
