I am constantly cleaning hot peppers out of my garden. I have found that powdered Ajax or Comet cleanser works better than anything else that I have tried to get out the burn. Scrub areas that have had a lot of contact and thoroughly rinse. The burn is gone for me.

I washed them 5 times,using every cleaner and industrial strength type I could find.(I knew enough to know that I needed to get my hands thoroughly cleaned) I mainly washed them because of an itch growing in my eye.
