Fill the bowl with warm water and add 1-2 teaspoons of mild laundry detergent. Mix the solution with your hand until it forms suds.
Dip the sponge or microfiber cloth into the cleaning solution, making sure that it is completely soaked. Gently scrub the stained area of the earplug with the cloth or sponge in a circular motion.
The inside of the earplug is usually where most of the wildflower staining occurs. Carefully insert toothbrush into opening of the earplug and scrub the inside with the same circular motion. Be sure to pay special attention to the hardest-to-reach areas.
Once you have finished scrubbing, rinse the earplugs under lukewarm running water. Shake off any excess water and place them on a towel to air dry. You should now see a noticeable difference in the brightness of the earplug. Repeat the process if necessary.
Never do laundry again. Save time for things you ❤️
