Write your question here...On the inside of the bit valve appears to have something black inside. Mold? Or is it the washer Not sure. How to clean. I don't want to purchase another bottle, since I have only had this one 3 months!

Chances are it is mold or some other grunge. I had the same problem with several of these bottles that I owned. It was a chore to keep it clean. I would rinse every day if possible and let it dry over night. A little warm water (I didn't use soap because it would leave a taste) seemed to do okay. When it did get to having mold in there, there was nothing I could do to clean it all out. I'd have to buy a new bite valve (which they only sell with two additional straws). In the end, I stopped using these bottles (as much as I liked them) because they're just too much hassle.
