Try this:
Take off the spark plug. Clean it with a wire brush or something similar that will not leave any crap on the plug.
With the plug out, hold in the starter button for a few seconds to air out the cylinder.
Put it back and try again.
Might not work but it's very quick to try

Carb clean if its been standing?
Give bump starting a go?
