How Do You Care For Rain Sticks?
Rain sticks create the soothing sound of rain or the sound of a waterfall. Rain sticks of good quality are typically made from wood or bamboo, and sometimes even cacti. Inside are usually either pebbles, thorns or seeds. The soothing sound of rain sticks can be enjoyed for generations if the sticks are properly care for. Prevent rain sticks from getting wet. Water will not only harm the outside of a rain stick, it may also seep inside, causing mold, rot and possible harm to the seeds that may be inside. Store your rain sticks in an area with a consistent temperature. Great temperature fluctuations can make the rain sticks expand and contract, causing them to break eventually. Maintain relative humidity levels between 30 and 60 percent. Rain sticks maintained at low humidity levels can often crack and split. High humidity levels may affect the quality of any adhesives on your rain sticks and cause the wood to warp. Keep rain sticks that are not designed for children away from children,
