When I went off to college I migrated from the west coast to the east (US), and my clarinet experienced a radical fluctuation in humidity. I used to not oil my clarinet at all, but now my practice is to give it a good wipe through the bore every few months (especially in the winter). More often I oil the ends of my joints; they get pretty dry for some reason.

Really there's no "right" answer to how (of if) you should oil your clarinet. You could talk to a local trusted tech and see what s/he thinks.
