I never washed mine. I would think one would need to be careful not to get them too wet because you don't want them to start steeping in liquid. Also there may be possible mold concerns...etc if stored improperly and they weren't completely dried.
In truth tho, I have no idea, I always like to take the side of caution and if I don't have to do something I won't.
