 Snuffer BottleSnuffer bottles (also called sucker bottles) are used to suck fine gold out of your pan, squirt black sands out of your way and to hold your pickers and nuggets while out on the stream. Made of flexible plastic, they won't break if dropped on the rocks and float if dropped in the water.
The siphon tube on a snuffer bottle extends into the body of the bottle, so once gold gets in, it cannot flow back out. Simply squeeze the bottle and suck up the gold.
