# hooray!
i haven't seen a pic of yours in too long, and for sieves, i'd say leave it to soak for ten mins in hot water.

# that wasn't my cat
my cat is called Farley.
Like the rusks.

I wouldn't let a truckful of 4rthurians/b3tans pick the name ;)

# But that's where you're going wrong
as that is a tea-strainer to strain tea leaves not a sieve which is much bigger and is used for flour and other lumpy powders.

Best way to wash any sieve like apparatus is to turn it upside down and then use a very hot and powerful jet of water to push out the offending bloackages and use a stiff brush.

# From the site the sieve came from....
"Loaded Sieve
Here is a close-up of a sieve filled with tiny insects. This photo represents the collection from an entire site (20 bowls). Of course the size of the collection varied quite a bit from site to site and from day to day depending on the site and the weather. This particular load is about typical, and although it doesn't look like much, it still takes a while to look at all of them under a microscope. "


I don't know the difference.

# That site is fully of sh*t ;)

See above for how to clean it.

# the trick
is to hold a spoon under the tab, that way the water covers a large area and cleans better

/why do i know that?

# Yes. Very much so.
That triangular headed youngster seems to be totally ignorant about sieve cleaning procedures. He's desparately addicted to the internet.
