How do I sterilize earrings bought on ebay?

Posted on September 20th, 2009 by Bucks Jewelry

yyyn9 asked:


The earrings might’ve been tainted with Aids, Hep or whatever there is even though it’s listed as new. Are there any reliable home methods that I can use instead of having to bring it to a piercing studio to use the autoclave? I can’t seem to find anything online about this.

    just dont buy anything else off of ebay like earrings or something that goes in your ears eyes tongue ..etc; that would be like buying underwear and wanting to wash them and then put them on but if you want to sterilize them put them in rubbing alcohol overnight !!

    boiling watter or colrine.

    If they’re sterling silver, boil them.
    Else, just use saline solution or an antibacterial cream.
    Good work with being careful about AIDS, its very important.
