            | Davidmpls | Minneapolis, Mn | I've used dawn dish soap and water, let it soak....same stuff we use on plants as mild pest control, so even if you left a residue...no problem....but still rinse until no bubbles form | 1/19/2015 12:16:09 AM | 
		
            | VTSteve | South Hero, VT | Honey is naturally antibacterial/antifungal, so you don't have to worry about sterilizing it.
 Hot water and soap should do the trick to clean it.

            | Tad12 | Seattle, WA | Oxyclean works well, but I'm with VT Steve on this one. Shouldn't be too hard to rinse them and maybe a bit of dish soap or Dr. Bronners.  Honey is just about the best thing you could have had in there. | 1/19/2015 7:17:39 PM |

            | So.Cal.Grower | Torrance, Ca. | Maybe that lacquer had something to do with your success this year. | 1/19/2015 7:25:42 PM |
