Product name
Hello all,
This is the name of a product but, having done some terminology research, it seems there are lots of different brands who advertise this. It's a suction tool for unblocking a baby's nose. Does anybody know what that's called in English? Or can anybody think of a snappy name that would explain what it is? I don't think baby suction tissue would cut it somehow!
Many thanks,
Lisa

nasal aspirator for babies
This is how it is usually termed, although I have heard of the rather hideous-sounding term "snot-sucker" before now....
