How do you sterilize scissors for medical use? Follow these important steps!
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Hey everyone, it’s your guy again, back with another one of my little experiments. Today, we’re diving into something that sounds pretty basic but is actually super important: how to sterilize scissors. Yeah, you heard that right. It might seem like a no-brainer, but trust me, there’s more to it than you’d think. So, let’s jump right in, shall we?

Getting Started

First off, I gathered all the scissors I could find around the house. Kitchen scissors, craft scissors, the old rusty pair in the garage – you name it. I figured, if I’m gonna do this, I might as well go all in, right? I made sure to get some gloves on because, safety first, people. After I had them all together, I started by giving them a good rinse under running water. You wouldn’t believe the gunk that came off some of these!

The Cleaning Process

Next up, the cleaning. I filled my sink with warm water and added a good squirt of dish soap. Nothing fancy, just the regular stuff. I let the scissors soak for a bit while I prepared my “cleaning station.” I grabbed an old toothbrush – don’t worry, it was one we weren’t using anymore – and got to scrubbing. I made sure to open and close the scissors while scrubbing to get into all those nooks and crannies. It was a bit tedious, but hey, gotta be thorough, right? After each pair got a good scrub down, I rinsed them under running water again until all the soap was gone.

Sterilization Time

Now for the main event – sterilization. I decided to go with the boiling water method. I mean, it’s the oldest trick in the book, and if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, am I right? I brought a big pot of water to a rolling boil on the stove. Once it was boiling like crazy, I carefully dropped the scissors in, making sure they were fully submerged. I set a timer for about 10 minutes, just to be safe.

Cool Down and Drying

Once the timer went off, I used some tongs to carefully take the scissors out of the boiling water. Man, were they hot! I laid them out on a clean towel to cool down and air dry. It’s super important to let them dry completely, especially if you’re not planning to use them right away. Moisture is a breeding ground for bacteria, and we don’t want that, do we?

The Final Result

After they were completely dry, I have to say, they looked pretty darn good. Shiny, clean, and most importantly, sterilized. I felt like a real scientist or something, haha! But seriously, it’s a good feeling knowing that the scissors are safe to use, especially if you’re using them for first aid or something like that.

So, there you have it, folks. My little adventure in sterilizing scissors. It might seem like a small thing, but it’s these little things that can make a big difference. Hope you found this helpful or at least a bit entertaining. Catch you in the next one!
