Cleaning your wireless headphones when things are stuck to them can be a bit gross, but there is a solution.
A new Kickstarter project called Cardlax Earbuds Washer is an automatic washer that promises to clean your wireless earbuds.

There's also a soft brush outside the drum that cleans debris from the headphone holes.
The entire cleaning process takes about two minutes. Although AirPods are used in the video, the Earbuds Washer is compatible with 99 percent of earphones on the market.
The cleaning process uses 70% alcohol, so the project claims it's 100% safe to use, even if your headphones aren't waterproof. It is possible to remove and wash the sponge and other elements.
The Cardlax Earbuds Washer is available for $33, in case automatic earbud cleaning is something you lack in life. The project has already quintupled its modest $5,000 target, so it seems there is demand.
