Storing pads?

How do you store your pads after use?? Besides the cleaning....do you put them in Ziplocs, store them in bins, what???

Re: Storing pads?

I use ziplocks ... no mold and no issue. I do hang dry overnight in hot garage.

Re: Storing pads?

What about spraying/misting them with pad conditioner before putting them in ziplock bags?

Re: Storing pads?

I wouldn't chance any moisture remaining in the pads. Deny a growth medium for any spores floating around. Personally use clean, clear veggie/fruit bags from the grocer with a few holes poked in them, then the rest in a plastic file box until called to action. Of course, that is after they've been fully washed and thoroughly dried.
