hole cleaning

I've just been cleaning my divacup, and I was agonizing over the fact that there seems to be no way to get the holes from looking like dark brown dots. I like to keep my divacup clean because I'm constantly showing it to people (I've converted at least 20 people to the wonderfulness of menstrual cups). And I found a way to make the holes look pretty!

Thread a needle (a pretty thick one, more like embroidery size than a tiny sewing one), then thread the needle through the hold of the cup with the eye end. If you thread with the pointy end, you'll just make a new hole. Then you can basically floss the hole! Yay! Now my holes look clean as new!
