If the bacteria were on a needle (for example) you could leave it in boiling water for 10 mins. Or hold it over a naked flame until it was glowing for a couple of minutes.

Hospitals etc. heat up equipment in special ovens, and also use radiation to kill any bacterium.

You can also use alcohol to kill most bacterium.

Heating process is a good way to sterilize your food, i.e., it kills the micro-organisms present in the food. It does not however, ensure that the food will not be contaminated again by bacteria or any other microbe.

Heating causes the DNA and active enzymes in the bacterial cells to get denatured so that the vital processes that keep the microbes alive are disturbed. This causes the contaminating cells to die. When the food is cooled back, it becomes a nutrient source for microbes again. Thus a proper storage is necessary to keep the food from getting contaminated again.

Autoclaving, pasteurization, etc are methods used for the purpose.
