1. Use cloth and alcohol or soapy water 

Get a piece of clean cloth, cotton or fiber are ok, then a glass of warm soapy water. Dip the cloth with soapy water to wipe the earpiece cover. If your earpieces are Apple series earpiece, mesh on the cover will be accumulated with gunk and dirty after a long time using without cleaning. Remember do not immerse the earbuds into the water for washing, because it will damage the internal elements and cause it broken. Don’t try to tear down the earpiece.

2. Use cotton swab and alcohol

As to some ear-in canal earpiece, we can use a cotton swab dipped with alcohol for cleaning. Dirt, filth, and dust in the earpiece mesh are hard to cleanout. We can use a wet cotton swab to wipe them away. Using alcohol for sterilization is a good choice here. One thing we have to notice is that we should be careful and don’t let the alcohol penetrate and damage the internal parts.

3. Use toothbrush and soapy water

If dirt and filth are really hard to clean, we may use a toothbrush for wiping. Use the soft fiber bristles toothbrush to wipe the dirt and dust away from the earpiece mesh. If the accumulated dirt and filth are blocked, dip the brush with soapy water for wiping. After the dirt is wiped away, use cloth for cleaning.
