Guest guest Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Hi Salma, Most folks don't clean them. They just buy more as they eventually won't hold any more scenting. I have seen little 'pillow' cases made for them. We have one that was made out of a soft piece of flannel material. This could be laundered but I don't think we ever have.
