Biodegradable Handle
A high quality easy-to-grip curved handle made entirely out of bamboo. Only organic, wild, giant Chinese Moso Bamboo is used for the bamboo toothbrush handle. No pesticides or fertilizers are ever used on this bamboo - in fact, because it is wild mountain bamboo, doing so would be completely impossible. Likewise, this bamboo is never watered by humans - only natural mountain rain. At present Brush With Bamboo are harvesting less than 1% of the possible bamboo resources available in the sprawling Chinese bamboo mountain range where this bamboo is harvested. Less plastic, more bamboo!

True Sustainability
Bamboo is the fastest growing plant on earth. Because it contains naturally-occurring antimicrobial agents, there is no need for using fertilizers or pesticides during its cultivation. This bamboo is totally organic and wild. After it is harvest another stalk takes its place and grows to full size within just 2 years - a remarkable growth rate!

Proper Care
Store Your Brush in Dry Area. Bamboo is a natural material that keeps best when kept in a dry area. Enclosed toothbrush cups that collect water are not ideal. It's best to keep your toothbrush in an open-air toothbrush holder or any other dry area.

Disposal of the Toothbrush
The different parts of the toothbrush can be disassembled for proper disposal. The bristles are not biodegradable but could be recyclable in your city. Contact your city about the best way to recycle bristles. Using pliers, it is easy to remove the bristles from the head. Doing so will also remove a small metal staple that is used to clamp the bristles to the handle. The handle can be reused or composted.

Reuse or Compost Handle
The bare toothbrush handle can be composted and will safely return to the soil within 6 months. However, the handle is a perfectly good piece of high-quality bamboo - feel free to reuse it!

Disposal of Packaging

The outer box is also biodegradable and made from 100% recycled paper. You may find some creative reuses for the box. Dispose of the box in a recycling or green waste bin.
