    Probably a little late to answer but I soak new wook in declorinated water with a a small amount of bleach then allow it to air dry until the bleach smell is gone.

    I usually boil them with untreated water or bake them. If you bring in sticks or anything else from outside, bake it. Bleaching rocks works well.
