You don't purge a crawfish. All that does it make them spit up. 24 hours to make them shite.

The experts also provide this information on myths that persist about cooking crawfish. For example:

–Myth No. 1: Pour salt on crawfish to purge them. "In reality, the salt doesn’t do anything," McClain said. Fully purging crawfish can be accomplished only by placing them in an aerated water bath for up to 24 hours, but washing them removes mud and debris.
