hello I have a SYN Thunderdome and it appears a fly has found its way through the splash guard. Got the fucker out after a couple hours of soaking with Formula 420....and blasting hot water from my hose through it, and repeatedly shaking it for atleast 20 minutes with formula 420, dish soap, rubbing alcohol, and hot water. So now the fly is out. But it appears the fly laid eggs and i see a little spot of dead maggots in my bong... i've been doing the same method i used to get the fly out but it doesn't seem to be working. Actually considering taking my piece to my local smoke shop and see if they can do anything for me.

I dunno about... maggots... (wtf bro) but I got a 24 arm perc (at least 24......) I use for oil.... and cleaning it was daunting....

Everclear (190, not that silly 151 shit) and a few pinches of good kosher salt (nice big grains... they dont dissolve in the alcohol, gives u something abrasive on the inner walls when u shake the fuck out of it)

I used like.... 4-5oz.... maybe? Not like you need a half gallon of booze or nothing....

and.... Who wouldn't want the added sanitizing power of the alcohol!? LOL

Maggots, while disgusting, are harmless and we use them in medicine to debride wounds. Sterile fly eggs (meaning the resulting flies that develop from the maggots cannot duplicate) are laid in the wound and covered with gauze. When we open the dressing a few days later the maggots have eaten all the goo and left healthy skin.Many people in the jungle have stayed alive only because flies laid eggs in open wounds and the resulting maggots ate all the infectious material.

When I used to work for the ambulance company before I was a nurse we could clear sections of restaurants so we could all be together. We were stationed around Albuquerque so we could dispatch quickly so we used restaurants. Buy a cup of coffee and see how many night customers we could run off from the places. "Man what was that cat eating that he would puke something that damned disgusting? Did you guys smell that?"

You should see most patients faces when the flies fly out of their wound and around the room. They usually have no idea what we did.For obvious reasons. Leeches that we use to de-congest old blood post-surgery or from crush wounds.

Man that ruded me out.

Me thinks the bong should be cleaned more often to prevent the greeblies from laying eggs and being there long enough to hatch.

Ugh, my pipe fell in the dogs water dish, my favorite pipe! It went straight from his water dish to the trash.

Okay, that's a lil extreme- why not just drop it in alcohol? It would be clean AND sterile!
