With so many different headsets on the market, it can be confusing as to which cleaning methods are the most effective. The number one thing that you want to do is keep water away from your headsets, as water can cause damage over time. The next thing that you want to do is take off the batteries if they are attached. Battery life is important in headsets, as you don't want to use them for too long without an adapter. 

You should also not use detergents and polishes with your headset. Instead, you will want to use a gentle wipe or paper cloth to wipe the outer surface. This will help to keep dirt and dust from entering the microphone. Also, you will want to avoid touching the ear pieces or utilizing products that could possibly damage them. This is especially important if you are using headphones as school headphones.

To clean dirt and debris off your headsets, you can use a vacuum cleaner. Use the right attachment, and you will find that your headset feels cleaner, even after you have used it for several hours. It may take you a few tries to get the feel of your new cleaner to your liking. If your vacuum cleaner does not feel like it is doing a good job, you can try running water through the hose before you start cleaning. This has been known to improve suction as well as the cleansing power of the vacuum. 

You can also try some elbow grease by applying a cleaning agent and rubbing it into a crevice on the bottom of your headset. When it starts to dry, simply shake off any excess. Be careful when you are applying grease or other cleaning agents; you do not want to get a rash or cut. If you cut yourself, you can easily make a bandage and apply a cover over the area. Keeping small cuts and nicks out of your equipment is important in maintaining your equipment's quality. 

Some people have opted for washing their headsets in the dishwasher. This is not very likely to work, as it will damage the unit. The problem with this cleaning method is that it can leave the protective sealant in the headset wet. This can cause problems with the device in the long run. If the protective sealant has been previously damaged, it is important to not use harsh chemicals to clean the headsets either. 

For those who have never cleaned their headsets, it is a good idea to start at the top. Start by removing the battery, earphones, and any extra cables. After you have taken these things off, take a soft sponge and dip it into some mild soap or laundry detergent. This will help remove any dirt that may be stuck to the devices. When you have thoroughly cleaned the device, rinse it off with water and keep it away from any direct sunlight. 

In order to keep the dirt from coming back, you may need to clean it every now and then. It is recommended that you do this every few months. Use a damp sponge or cloth and apply gentle pressure to the device's surface. Do not use anything too abrasive. If you have never used one of these cleaning solutions before, it is wise to practice at home to get the hang of it. 

The most effective way to clean will be to use a disinfectant and wipe down your headset. Alcohol is a great way to clean them. If you are trying to clean bulk headphones for schools, lay them out carefully and do a thorough cleaning. Especially if used for schools and kids, these headphones need to be cleaned well. 

As you can see, there are many effective ways to clean your headset. When you keep the dirt from coming on your devices, you will find that they work more smoothly and last longer. Additionally, if you have ever had your device fall victim to a leak, now is the time to act. Find the source of the leak and fix it. With a little work and maintenance, you should be able to keep your headset in great shape for years to come.
