The Drying Dilemma
Reusable water bottles have become an essential part of our daily lives, helping us stay hydrated while reducing plastic waste. But maintaining these bottles can be tricky, especially when it comes to drying them — particularly those with narrow necks like S’well, Corkcicle, Hydro Flask, Stanley and Nalgene brands. Despite the good intentions of using reusable bottles, improper drying of narrow neck and narrow mouth water bottles can lead to a host of problems that many people might not even realize.
Don’t Air Dry
Air-drying a narrow-neck bottle might seem like the most convenient option, but it’s far from ideal. When you leave your bottle to air dry, it’s exposed to whatever is floating around in the surrounding environment. Worse, moisture trapped inside the bottle can become a breeding ground for mold and bacteria which can pose real health risks such as gastro and respiratory problems.
Why Conventional Methods Fall Short
Makeshift solutions like stuffing a towel inside, or leaving the bottle to air-dry, doesn’t guarantee that all moisture will evaporate. The bottle may look clean on the outside, but the moisture left inside can develop into mold. Many of us have experienced this when we leave our water bottle in the car for an extended period of time, especially on a hot day. This is a perfect example of why drying the inside after washing it is so important. Start with a clean, dry water bottle before you fill it each time. Even if you’re just drinking water.
