How do you clean yours?

Urgh - that little drainage hole at the back of the fridge.

I've just spent a silly amount of time twisting pieces of kitchen roll into a "stick" to shove down the hole and was thinking "there must be an easier way to do this".

Is there a gadget, or has some Gransnetter got an ingenious method of cleaning it.

I mentioned that they are often dental brushes which come in a variety of sizes, found at most pharmacies or online.

Thank you Gabriella. That would be a possibility when mine are no longer useable.

I had one without weird hole. Freezer above it was always mental. Had to hack at it with a blowtorch. New fridge freezer has the hole. So far, so good. Have t had to do anything to it yet.

Cottonwool bud. Likewise for the front of the washing machine where the little holes are.
