Title: Hey, can you boil those fancy Hearos ear plugs without destroying them?

Or at least get near it?

These spendy rubbery ones with the small tubular plastic part sticking out that I need to start using again have seen more hygienic days.

Rinse/wash by hand with soap under warm flowing tap water. The wax and funk comes right off. No need to boil them.

Probably clean them with rubbing alcohol, if you want sterilizing.

Just been offered a trade account with ACS for earplugs so I can start stocking them.

Alcohol works.

Agreed.

I've found that if I drink enough alcohol, the tinnitus isn't nearly as bothersome.
