Microphone isn't working properly on my HTC Desire 510

I was making jelly so my hands were a bit sticky, I used my phone during the process as I was on a call, and obviously with my hands being sticky, my phone got rather sticky too. I did use a dry cloth to wipe it down first but my phone was still sticky and wouldn't let me touch the screen. So, I got a babywipe and wiped the screen, it must of gotten into my mic as now whenever people ring me, they cannot hear me properly, apparently my voice sounds really faint. How do I fix it?

Get a fine pin and poke any jelly and fluff out of the mic hole.
It's a tiny hole at the bottom of the phone.
