Just after you finished playing zurna you have to release the zurna reed from the tube of the zurna and put it in a secure location. The reeds have to be locked with their closing cap and allowed to dry out (or else the reed might become moldy). Most zurna performers have some kind of handmade box with spots pierced in it to achieve this. Remember to always keep the closing cap on the reed when it is not being played.

As for the zurna itself, from time to time it needs to be lightly oiled on the outside only (never put oil on the inside, as this will change the sound). Sweet almond oil generally works well and does not become rancid or tacky as some other vegetable oils will.
