How do I rid my flower pots of scale insects and eggs?

I had to literally throw out between 2/3 and 3/4 of all my plants because they either had scale, were showing signs of scale or were dying of dehydration. What I want to do in the wake of this disaster is transplant my lemon tree into a bigger pot. I have tons of pots that I can go with, but they may have been used to house plants with scale.

How do I disinfect the pot I'm going to use to replant my lemon tree so it doesn't get scale? Thanks a bunch.
