Abstract: An optical connector cleaning tool includes a cleaning head that faces the lens (cleaning target portion) of an optical connector, and a cleaning cloth (3) that moves with respect to the cleaning head in a state in which the cleaning cloth is in contact with the lens. The cleaning cloth (3) is formed into a strip shape by a fabric (25) including a plurality of warps (28) in which a longitudinal direction thereof is a moving direction of the cleaning cloth moving with respect to the cleaning head. The warp (28) includes a first chemical fiber (31) and a second chemical fiber (32). One chemical fiber of the first chemical fiber (31) and the second chemical fiber (32) is in a stretched state, and the other chemical fiber is in a slack state. It is possible to provide an optical connector cleaning tool capable of cleaning a lens-type optical connector.
