I like the idea of an untrasonic cleaner and may get one.
But for viruses in general, I have come to swear by (not at) at product called Sambucus put out by Nature's Way. I've used both locally available varieties, the "pure" elderberry and the elderberry-plus-echinacea, and they work equally well, leading me to believe that for me it's the elderberry extract that is doing the trick. Taking echinacea has never had any demonstrable benefits for me, by itself.
When I start to feel a scratchiness or whatever that feels viral, I take this stuff as directed and generally I don't get sick. I have people all around me at the office with both colds and flu, but I manage to miss the most of it.
Question: what is the usual practice of sanitizing or not sanitizing reeds when one person makes a reed for another person, or adjusts a reed for them? Is it usual to sanitize, not usual, or it depends? How is a reed sanitized anyway? When I've bought reeds from reed-makers, I don't know if they arrive sanitized or if I need to sanitize them before using them.
