I agree 100% with the cleaning your gear properly EVERY time you use it and before using it again. There are ways to clean them properly even without using 409, but it is certainly an option. Just do it right...please!
As for the felt soles, I like the principle behind it, but in practice I think it's misguided when it becomes the focus. Neoprene guards,
s, shoe laces, and mesh material can all transport invasive species as easily as felt will. If we focus too much on felt by pushing bans and the like I think people get a false sense of security when using non-felt soles.
