How Can I Safely Remove Rice From My iPhone Charging Port?

Asked by CreativePineapple99
I accidentally dropped my phone in the toilet and, in a panic, used rice to dry it out. I've realized that putting it in rice might have made things worse. Right now, I'm letting it dry with a fan, but there's still some rice stuck in the charging port. I've managed to get a couple of pieces out, but there's still about half a grain left. I'm really worried about damaging the phone if I try to get it out myself. Does anyone have any tips on how to safely remove it?

A wooden toothpick is your best bet here! It's not metal and won't damage the components as long as youโ€™re careful. Just gently nudge it around to get the rice out, and don't go too crazy with it! Good luck!
