You could soak them warm water for an hour and then use a mini bottle cleaner to swish around inside.

It's the squeezy bit that's so hard to reach

Use cotton ear buds dabbed with handwash

Wash them out well in sink with a mini brush - then bung them in the dishwasher on the top rack .

I've just cleaned a load of these, I squirted some washing up liquid in and very hot water, lid on and shook the hell out of them, rinsed them in plenty of hot water and then stuck them in the dishwasher. Came out perfect

Awesome thank you

will try the hot water and shaking like a Polaroid picture technique

I used washing soda crystals mixed with very hot water (took the lids off and soaked them in it)
