Wondering how often to change the reed sticks in a diffuser? Well, the answer comes down to several variables:

Normally speaking, the fiber stick is better at absorb and transmit fragrance. 

 

2.  Where you to placing the reed diffuser?

Obviously,  Keeping an air diffuser near drafty areas will increase the air circulation, which can make your reeds dry out and last mere weeks. Ultimately, the more circulation the reed diffuser comes in contact with, the sooner you’ll need to replace them. 

 

3. How often you flip the reeds?

If you can not smell any fragrance coming out of the reed diffuser, your reeds stick may simply need flip. You should turn the diffuser reeds every 2-3 weeks to let the scent alive. Submerging them in the oil gives the dry ends of reeds a chance to soak up whatever it can, while the previously submerged bottom stands out and projects an immediately stronger scent.

 

Frequent turning of the diffuser reeds will speed up the consumption of reed diffuser but it will keep  the pleasant aroma in your home. However, if you turn the reeds and they still don't smell like a diffuser, that's a sure sign the reeds are no longer doing their job, you need to buy some new diffuser sticks to replace them.
