I use a small cross head (Phillips) screw driver. I have had two of
my harps for eighteen months and clean them at least once a week.
Although the head has started to go on one end, remember, you can unscrew
from the bolt or screw so, when one wears out, use the other.
If you can make your harps last longer than the screws are at this
rate then well done to you!
