I dip (immerse) my reeds into Hydrogen Peroxide for about 40 seconds
when I have finished playing. This process seems to make the reeds last a lot longer, as the Hydrogen Peroxide kills any bacteria that would tend to break
down the cell walls of the cane. No "biology projects" once the reed has be sterilized. After immersing the reeds in the H2O2, I apply an adjustable clamp made out of a standard paper clip across the center of the back of the reed, with the pressure point exactly in the center of the spine. This helps train the reed closed, so the next time you play you will not have to deal with a reed that has splayed open as it is drying. I find the paper clip clamps to be extremely helpful in the reed-making process as well.
