PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a washing method to wash an object without damaging the object having a microstructure. SOLUTION: By this washing method, an object such as a micromachine which forms a beam structure by etching a sacrificial layer is washed using super-critical carbon dioxide added non-ionic surfactant as washing liquid. The added non-ionic surfactant is, for example, nonyl phenol polyoxyethylene ether shown by formula; the number of mol is 2-4 in the formula of ethyleneoxide (CH<SB>2</SB>-CH<SB>2</SB>-O) in the above formula. The adding quantity of the non-ionic surfactant is, for example, the adding quantity with which the concentration range of the non-ionic surfactant in the super-critical carbon dioxide at 40<SP>0</SP>C, 8MPa is made 0.01mol% or more and 2mol% or less, desirably 0.05mol% or more and 1mol% or less.
