I need to find a tool for cleaning the gas jets on the kitchen gas hob. They seem to get blocked more frequently than seems logical, nothing can get spilled onto the jet itself, but they need cleaning at least twice per year. I did have a fine drill bit (0.4 mm ?) that did the job, but was too fragile, and is now lost. There must be a better tool available somewhere ?

I just used successfully a brass wire from a sued cleaner brush to free up jet hole on camping gas stove. I sprayed the jet hole with halfords water dispersant, wd40 or other penetrating oil may have been as good,the night before to try a soften up anything in the jet first. Saved buying a new stove.
