Spray your yoga mat all over and leave for 15 minutes. Using a clean damp cloth with mildly soapy water, wipe it over. And leave to thoroughly dry.
Once dry, take a paper towel that has been very lightly soaked in Bamboo Garden fragrance oil (you want it just damp, NOT wet or it will just encourage mold.) Lay it over your yoga mat and roll up overnight. Remove the paper tissue in the morning. If you pop the tissue in a ziplock bag you can re-use it time and again.
Note: If you want some bug busting extra protection you could add to the mix - 10 drops of Tea Tree Essential Oil (Melaleuca Alternifolia) . But don’t use it in the first 16 weeks of pregnancy.
