| There may be some of you out there who have never used a water pik for
| cleaning shells (or cleaning teeth, either). If you have not, and may be
| considering it, let me tell you, this is one powerful little shell cleaner.
| This little tool creates great pressure in little bursts, and is very
| effective in cleaning shells. I clean my shells with it in a 2 1/2 gallon
| white bucket filled with water. Use it under the water, for two reasons: You
| don't blast the shell to who-knows-where, and you don't get soaked from the
| spray either. The white bucket is used so I can easily see when the animal
| gets flushed out. I've used it on larger shells on occasion, when I've put it
| deep inside the aperature and blasted away on a stubborn liver. I think the
| last one I bought cost about 30 bucks, and well worth it.
