no because when you boil it, it will kill all the bacteria on the lobster. but if you are a germ freak you can wash it if you really want to. ---------------------------------------------------------- The lobster needs to be boiled in salted water before you can eat it. After it has been boiled you can eat most of it apart from the gills, shell and the vein running from the front to the rear in the white meat of the tail.

What should you notice when buying live lobster?

When buying live lobster, look for signs of vitality, such as active movement and a firm shell. Check the lobster's claws for a healthy grip and ensure that the shell is clean and free of any cracks or damage. Additionally, consider the lobster's weight; a heavier lobster generally indicates a better meat-to-shell ratio. Lastly, inquire about the source to ensure it's fresh and sustainably caught.
