The care that beeswax wraps and bags require for proper maintenance is not a very difficult task to do, at home we can follow the following recommendations to take care of our wraps and thus extend their useful life. It´s recommended:
• Wash carefully and preferably by hand. A mild dishwasher is allowed but with handwashing, we guarantee to treat the beeswax sheets with greater delicacy and avoid damage to their structure.
• The soap to be used (preferably liquid) must be mild and must not contain alcohol in its ingredients. Soaps that contain alcohol or some other very aggressive chemical agent can weaken the beeswax and the oils that the wrap contains.
• Always lather and rinse the beeswax wraps and bags with cold water. Coldwater allows the surface of the beeswax wraps and bags to stay firm for proper cleaning. Very hot water could affect the structure of the casings and cause the beeswax in the casings to melt or weaken.
• Simulate the same procedure when cleaning the casings as if you were washing normal dishes. They can be scrubbed with a kitchen towel or soft sponge that does not contain any material that can scratch them.
• Avoid rubbing hard or insisting on a fixed place on the wraps since too much pressure on a certain area can cause the wax it contains to come off, altering the surface and quality of the wrap.

It´s impressive how all kitchen and everyday items can acquire a long useful life thanks to the care that only housewives can give them.
