Hi, i've just noticed that my pigs grease gland is a bit sticky and dirty, obviously plain water hasn't worked!

I know coconut oil works but I havent got any, is there any alternatives I could use that I might have?
 
We use Swarfega ( the stuff mechanics use to get grease off their hands) on the infrequent occasions when we have needed to clean grease glands.
I think some people use a little washing up liquid if nothing else is available.

Personally I use Swarfega and rub a big blob on, massage it in and then leave on for a few minutes. Then rinse and use pet shampoo to get any residue off. This has always worked for my lot
