Safe
Dry the products after use. Store them in dry & cool condition to prevent moisture accumulating in the bamboo and creating mold.
For extra cleaning power, occasionally rinse the bamboo with white distilled vinegar to kill germs, bacteria and mold, or you can rub half a lemon across the utensils to disinfect, as well.
Wash & Care
Dry your bamboo utensils after cleaning with a clean, dry towel, rather than letting them air dry.
If your bamboo utensils start to look or feel dry, re hydrate them with odourless mineral oil, or bamboo conditioning oil (found in most kitchen supply stores).
Store your utensils in a dry place away from extreme temperatures that can cause cracking and splitting.
Durability
It can last quite long as long as we take care of them properly.
To be on the safe side, replace your bamboo cutlery every five years or when they start having cracks, discolouration or soft spots.
