I asked my pharmacist about this and he suggested chlorine in water but in much lower concentration than a 1:10 ratio. He said 5 -6 drops in a cup of water would kill most germs.

I have also used Hydrogen Peroxide and like it for another reason besides killing germs. It bubbles and fizzes and cleans out gunk from the reeds.

The effect is a little more life for the reeds and that is especially useful for younger players.
