How can I clear screen command history? [duplicate]

I'm using screen command after ssh to a public remote machine with Ubuntu 14.04 so that I could continue my sessions whenever I want. I've found that some admins are tracking my command history and they have access to my screen sessions too. I know that I can clear my bash history commands by removing .bash_history file in my home directory but couldn't find a way to clear my screen sessions' command history too.

Command you are looking for is history

To delete your current session it would be

history -c

To delete your current session and previous ones you would use both commands

history -c && history -w
