Bag says both "Do not immerse in water" and "Toss them in the tub." So, is the tub supposed to be dry?! Seriously, which is it?

Lol it is saying not to get the bag wet when the recycled fabric gets wet it tears easy.... and u do put blocks in tub I have even put them in top rack of dish washer to get the soap scum off from playing in the tub too much. The blocks them selves r a very sturdy rubber my dog can't even chew it up!

LOL annoying isn't it? They can go in water, I just haven't used them in the bath because they each have the little air hole, and water might turn to mold in there. You know how the rubber duckies do that if you don't get all the water out? These are REALLY nice blocks so I didn't want to have to throw one out, I love them. I'm thinking of getting a second set so my daughter has more of them to build with. Hope that helps!

My opinion is that they should be placed in a paper bag instead. It is less likely that they will develop mold. Even then, they may have some mold on them when you return. Get them in the ground as soon as possible and you will be fine.Mr. E.

None at all on ours. We've had them about a year and a half. And most the time they self dry in the empty tub :) We do live in california, so it's a pretty dry. We have had troubles with other plastic toys that have snuck in as gifts. These we are all in love with though!

I would say that it would not hurt to put your contents in a plastic bag for extra added protection because I have not personally had my bag soaking wet like it will be when taken on a water ride. I have got the bag wet on a couple of occasions from pouring rain and it stayed dry.

No reason in particular. If you read a warning on the box then simply return them. But we've had no complaints from anyone in a hot tub.

I didn't use water. Directions are on each package. You shake and snap them to "activate" the cooling, then apply to affected area. They're not absorbant

Well, of course. They want to sell more bags! I wash mine out with hot, soapy water, open them up and let them dry out thoroughly before putting them away. I resorted to this because I couldn't find any at the grocery store.

I opened mine right away, so I'm not sure, but after I opened them, they were starting to dry out, so I put the opened bag into a jar. That was a couple months ago, and they are still fine. If they start to mold, let them dry out a little to store them longer, put them in some sugar, where they will dry and flavor the sugar, or freeze them.

That has never happened to me when I washed them in the bag but I have more often than not washed them outside the net bag but I put them in the bag for drying because they cling to things in the dryer but I have thought that they may not get enough swishing in the washer in the bag

My bag says to store in a cool dry place, and that they keep "best" in fridge or freezer. If you are thinking 25 years, then they would probably need to be frozen. The expiration date on my bag was stickered over, so I can't tell what it is. Maybe the manufacturer would have more precise info on shelf life.

Off. There is no water in them so it doesn't matter. You can't put water in them either....just a bad purchase

I have not had any moisture problem. I've had the bag for a few years. It currently resides in my basement which sometime can get to 55 F or less. I also have not changed the water or opened it since purchase, just hang, move, and re hang... don't know if this would affect it. Update: I probably should include I am in the Mid East USA - I get a wide variety of weather, but rarely any extremes.

I use a zip lock bag. However I also had some in open container for about a year, which worked just fine just recently. They will not dry out, but since sticky it would be better in a bag....

I washed and dried on high heat with my diapers, and the bag delaminated after about a month or so. I think it got caught on something in my dryer, and that is why, but it could be the high heat. I now hang my other wet bags/liners to dry just to be safe. The reason I put bags in the dryer was because they took so long to air dry compared to the diaper shells, but I don't want to have to buy a new one every month.

As others have stated, the damp chew going into the baggie is the problem. After my dogs enjoyed their chew sessions with these treats I let the chews completely dry out in the open air before putting it into any closed container for storage. I hope this works for you too. These treats are too expensive to lose them to mold!

They are basically a marshmellow. If you bought them and did not open the bag, they would probably last. If you open them, I think they will dry out. Happy party!
