Default Need help on mouth call care

I started about a mouth ago learning to use a mouth call. I started with the Primos video and three call set. My question is is after each use I rinsed the single and double (which I just tried a couple of times) with mouth wash and then water. the double though has one reed now with a couple of wrinkles in it. IS this normal or is the call junk now?? [:' (]

Put it in the freezer when not in use. The freezer will probably take the wrinkle out, worth a try.

Store your mouthcalls in the fridge, or that is what i have heard. I put broken off tips of plastic toothpicks between the reeds on my calls to keep the reeds from sticking together. Be careful if you try this, because you don' t want to poke a hole in the reed.

It should be o.k They do tend to wrinkle a little bit, Does the call sound the same to you? If it does then it should be just fine. I usually rinse my mouthcalls with cool water, and then dip them in some of Knight and Hales Yelper Helper for about 30 seconds to a minute then pat the call dry with a paper towell and then put some of the call savers made by Pennswoods or Quaker boy between the reeds and then store them in the refridgerator. This will keep your calls sounding great for a long time to come.
