After Apple replaced them a few times I found out on Reddit it was purely because some wax had worked its way into the grill and caused it to block the sound coming out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>How often should you clean earbuds?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p> I mean if you are like me and you use them daily at work, then you&#8217;re going to best cleaning them once a week to ensure that they remain nice and clean. However if you notice that they look a little grubby before that you might want to switch up to twice a week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you wear them when you go for a run or to the gym, then it\u2019s worth giving them a clean after this to remove any moisture and sweat. You should also clean them regularly during summer when you generally sweat a bit more and your ears also produce more wax.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Cleaning your Earbuds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now when it comes to cleaning your earbuds you might have tried to do this with cotton wool, or even just a bit of tissue, the issue with this is you&#8217;ll soon notice that you are not able to get into all the little corners of the earbuds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s where this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/olixar-earphone-bud-cleaning-accessories-kit-85482\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Olixar earbuds cleaning kit<\/a> has you covered.
