Milwaukee pH Probe

Question: I have heard that the probe must be kept wet at all times. What if the device is not in use? I have had one of these in the closet for about 6 months. Do I need a new probe? I am setting my tank back up September 1st, and I am trying to get all my ducks in a row right now. Thanks for looking!

Probably need a new probe.

In the future, store the probe in a little of the pH 7 or pH 4 calibration buffer.
