Why wouldn't the spores from the towel just stick to the needle and then reproduce in the jar?




Because alcohol kills trichoderma mycelium and spores. Where ever you heard that was wrong.

I don't think he heard it anywhere he was asking. It works because it kills the spores and not the actual contaminant after it has shown itself.

He's talking about using it for needles.

Alcohol kills any fungus as far as I know. Bread molds for sure. Even if it isn't able penetrate it completely to the core. Unless it's a huge mass of fungus of course. Which we're not discussing.

I go through a LOT of alcohol, but still flame sterilize any and all needles before use, and between each and every jar. Some people can get away with less, but in my area there's just too much mold and bacteria in the air. Besides, what can alcohol do for the inside of the needle where it can't reach?
