if you have time and a big bit of plastic what u can do is wet them and put them in the sun under the plastic wet for about 7 days wet them from time to time it is a good way the steralize wood chips as well. if u dont have time just spray them with some f10 if you have it i wouldnt use bleach wood will just soak it up use somthing that is not halmfull to the sanke like f10 and dont use somthing that is residual because it will just hang around

let it dry and then do it again and then let that dry the idea is to kill every thing and f10 should pretty much do that get it in all the cracks though
