    Those bulb syringes can be a nightmare too, read that the cause of someone’s problem was mold growing the bulb and getting sent straight into the ear.

    Gross and terrifying. If you can’t see what’s inside, don’t trust it’s clean.

    On the bright side, your boiling water probably did a good job of disinfecting it.

      I’ve got one of those bulbs but it comes apart so you can see and clean the inside. It’s also transparent so you can see inside it even if you decide to be lazy.
