Mine are gross. They get gross really fast. I can't get to all the mold, so I just do a bleach soak every once and a while. I got those drop in things and they don't work. So I put a drop of vinegar in them and now the house STANKS!

How often do you clean yours? How do you clean it? How do you maintain the clean?

We have a cool mist one in Tyler's room and it is gross even though we wipe it down often.

We used to use this humidifier helper liquid (green bottle) but I think it just made things worse.
