In haste, I tried to oil them using "nature oil" this product we used to use on our kitchen counter which was butcher block. It worked beautifully there.

However, have been reading since on the web about the dangers of oiling teak (albeit they are conflicting) and I seem to be worried that now I will get mildew because I have put an organic type oil on it.

Am I doomed? What can I do to fix this????
