To kill fungal spores on nail clippers, you can soak them in a mixture of hot water and either bleach or hydrogen peroxide for 10-15 minutes. Afterwards, thoroughly dry the nail clippers to prevent moisture buildup, which can encourage fungal growth. It's also important to regularly clean and disinfect your nail clippers after each use to prevent the spread of infection.
