If your earbuds are water-resistant, you can use the following methods to clean your earbuds – Use water and typical dish cleaner soap and make a liquid solution out of it. Now dip a cloth in it and wipe out the dirt. Do not use too much of the solution on the earbuds and avoid spilling it inside. Do not use harsh cleaning agents or detergents on them. Store it in protective and clean covers or cases. Avoid keeping them on dirty surfaces when they are not being used. You can also use the mobile liquid cleaners that are available in the market to clean the earbuds. These cleaners are generally available in a gel form. So, you just take a bit of the gel on a cleaning cloth and wipe your earbuds with it. Make sure that the fabric is not rough. Otherwise, it may leave scratches on your headphones. This method can also be used for non-waterproof ones.
