at the moment im using a peppermint and lemon scented eucalyptus didge cleaner i bought in a spray bottle! it works really well and smells great....but im going to give this a go as well. i love the smell of eucalyptus! thanks sanshi
@@kevinmagee8955 water could cause the crack when quickly drying, so we recommend oil, oil will soak into the wood and make it waterproof, also eucalyptus oil is antiseptic etc. Orange oil also food safe!
I came home from a vacation to find my house had flooded, and my didgeridoos have mold on them. What's a good way to get that off, and return them to their rightful state, without ruining the paint job?
First, check there are no cracks holes etc, if so repair it first. If the inside is not coated then I would run the orange oil all around inside to re-hydrate and it will protect from moisture from breath. But if the didge's outside has decorated with ocher paint, it can absorb the oil so be careful!
@@DidgeridooBreathAustralia fantastic, thank you for getting back to me! It looks like the inside was coated with wax pretty well, it's been about 20 years but I'm guessing it will be okay. Thanks again!
My didge has white things inside it and Im really worried, I think it even covers the interior (my didge is 150cm). So a toothbrush isnt enough, I need help!
Tea tree oil also fine! Nothing better than the clean didge!
Thank Sanshi, this video is still very useful 10 years later! 😀
Thanks!! Let's make 100!!!
Yes, Lemon oil, Orange oil also great food safe oil! smells goooood!

Great stuff! I think that's better! I love citrus smell!!! Thanks
great - a toothbrush! good idea! I use tea-tree oil in water in a spray bottle. Now I'll try eucalyptus oil too... thanks!
Awesome! Thanks Sanshi. Ive been wondering how you guys go about this
Why not! test it and if it works, let us know!
Hi, do you have Orange oil? You can get it from Guitar shop sometime, and they are also good cleaning oil, smells great too!
Can you use just water and a toothbrush, No Eucalyptus oil added?

Why not! but oil will soak into the timber and make it waterproof it!
Australia? or as Rico says, use Lemon oil or Orange oil!
DidgeridooBreath i have one
Thanks! getting hot for summer down under!
Is rinsing the Didgeridoo with Soap and Water good enough to clean it? Thanks.
Hi, it depend from the didgeridoo. If it is coated inside, yes it is ok to wash with water and soap.
I came home from a vacation to find my house had flooded, and my didgeridoos have mold on them. What's a good way to get that off, and return them to their rightful state, without ruining the paint job?
Mold killed by Clove oil!
Yes, Don't drink!
you can dilute with water then use it!
i have dirty digierdoo bamboo
Hey Sanshi, would lemon oil work for cleaning my didgeridoo. Thanks for the video
Do you ever clean the rest of it?
Will the eucalyptus/orange oil from a pharmacy be of any help? I can't seem to find any of it in my area apart from the pharmacies
Go for orange oil, Eucalyptus can be strong scent!
Do you think just plain mineral oil would work?
Possibly, eucalyptus oil kills bacterias! Orange oil or citrus is food safe and good smell, but avoid engine oils Hehehe
I just bough a bamboo didgeridoo, I upgraded from a pvc home made one 😂. Do you have to put a wax mouth piece in the bamboo didgeridoo?
MrRockfish01 beeswax mouthpiece for narrowing the mouthpiece down to playable size. If you need some we got some!
I could really use some help restoring an old didge that I want to play. I'm afraid it will crack from being dried out.

@@johncaccioppo1142 Happy Didgin'!
Can I use the same toothbrush to clean my teeth? hehe
would water be fine to clean the digeridoo with, im broke :')
purpose of eucalyptus oil is disinfecting and harmonising bad smell. Maybe Vodka???
Amm...im from Serbia and in our country there is no eucalyptus oil, so what can i use?
What key is that didgeridoo?
My didge has white things inside it and Im really worried, I think it even covers the interior (my didge is 150cm).
So a toothbrush isnt enough, I need help!
+nuno francisco Try sand it off with sand paper? Or wire brush!
can i use dettol?
Where can u buy this oil
The oil says poison on the bottle.
I'm glad I'm not the only person who noticed that
