It's your own blood, where does the infection come from?  It is perfectly 
safe to reuse lancets as long as they are your own.  I change mine maybe 
once a week.  If you use a alcohol swab you can always clean it before
use. 
They do get dull after a while and you can always tell because you can
feel 
it.
