How to remove a broken lightbulb?
Â
• Turn off power to the bulb and unplug the lamp.
• Put on protective gloves.
• Grip the metal lip of the bulb with needle-nose pliers.
• Gently unscrew the bulb base, turning it the same way you would an unbroken bulb. Watch your fingers while turning the bulb base. Sheered glass remnants may still be inside.
• Remove the bulb base from the socket.
• Be sure to vacuum up any broken glass from the floor.
