This was the way I was thinking too. A bore brush on a longish stick. Cram the straws on the stick and send 'em. Any serious chunckage should get pushed out.

How would you prevent it from being flung off or it just spinning with the brush? That’s the big challenge.

Just shove it down past the bristles. Maybe give it some twists on the way. It ain't goin' nowhere. The bristles are arranged in a spiral with a slighly wider diameter that the tube.

That’s what I’m saying though, if you shove onto the bristles with it being slightly wider the entire straw would rotate with the brush and if you push it past the bristles then hows it going to clean and sanitize them? The best way to see what I’m saying if to grab a straw shove the brush in and rotate quickly between your hands.
