Bamboo Care
The best way to avoid mold on our bamboo products is to wipe them off after each
use. You do not have to get them completely dry, but running a towel over the top
and bottom will get rid of most of the water. The reason for this is that ANY
surface will eventually gather mold and stains if it is left covered in water.
Cleaning Tips
Use a ph neutral floor cleaner or Murphy’s oil soap to clean the bamboo, remove the soap with a damp soft cloth and towel dry.
-Use a mixture of vinegar and water; add . cup of vinegar to 1 quart of water. Simply wipe your bamboo down with a cloth that has been dampened in the mixture. The vinegar smell dissipates naturally or you might add an essential oil
or a pleasant scent. We suggest lavender oil as it is antiseptic and has a calming scent!
-Use a few drops of mild dish soap to a half-gallon of water. Use a soft sponge or cloth dampened with the solution and wipe your seat down. A soft toothbrush can be used for hard-to-reach spots.
-A few drops of linseed oil or flax seed oil, on a dry cloth will add a shine to
your bamboo and help extend its life. We do not recommend using abrasive cleaners or pads to clean your bamboo products. They could strip the surface and cause the bamboo to warp over time. We also do not recommend soaking bamboo as that could lead to mildew.
