Unclogging Sprayer Nozzles on the Go

 Idea...

“I wanted to make it easier for me to clean and unclog the nozzle. I know blowing into the nozzles is not safe. I thought if I have all the supplies with me then I can take care of the problem right there. Now if I have a clogged nozzle, I can clean it safely and quickly.”
