How to Properly Clean your Whistle



No matter the type of whistle you choose to own, it probably benefits from a cleaning. Whistles that are metal and have peas even require cleaning. If you are unsure how to clean your whistle properly, let us help!

There are a couple ways to clean your metal whistle. One way we recommend is to boil it. First, fill a pot with enough water to cover the whistle. Place the pot on the stove and wait until the water comes to a boil. Insert the whistle into the boiling water for about 5-10 minutes, and then turn off the stove. Once the water cools, remove the whistle from the water and let it dry.

For plastic whistles, you need to be more careful because they are not as durable as the metal alternative. Try using mouthwash to clean your whistle. Simply place enough antiseptic mouthwash into a bowl deep enough so the whistle will be fully covered. Place the whistle into the bowl and soak for about 30 minutes to remove germs. Once you have done this, run water over the whistle for roughly a minute and let it dry overnight.

Be sure to try these methods out and let us know how they work!

  1. Glad to know your writing and thanks from my mind. An emergency whistle is quite a toy; it’s a bit of apparatus that would save your life just in case of emergency. Let’s imagine the subsequent situation: you're ascension a mountain along with your friends and every one of the sharp the world moves below your feet and you disappear during a hidden valley.
