Care Tips
After every use, back-flush your LifeStraw by blowing a breath of air back into the mouthpiece to purge all remaining water trapped within the filter. If you have access to clean water, suck some into the filter and back-flush it again. Give it a few shakes and leave both ends uncapped to air dry at room temperature.
