This is a lovely use for your old mascara wands – Animal rescue aassociations use mascara wands to groom the fur of wild animals, removing fly eggs and larva, nits and fleas, and to clean off any dirt, dust or sand.
Cleaning the small animals is important because workers can examine and treat them for injuries. The wands, which would otherwise go to waste, work well because the bristles are close together and are gentle enough to use even on animals with sensitive fur or feathers.
They can also use the wands to clean out the syringes used for feeding the tiny animals.
