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!
