It will be fine mate - dips and liquids lasts for years and years despite firms saying there is an expiry date.

Keep it stored in a dark and cool location.

if air tight and full bottle, then it will be fine. if not, the flavours within oxidise

So if l've used a drop out of each even when stored in a cool dark place they won't be any good that's a bit of a sickner

I remember years back when the activ-8 was new on the scene. Had a pot of pop-ups (original white label ones) that I drowned in neat Activator. Those baits worked until I ran out...and the pot probably lasted me 3-4 years of occassional sessions. I wouldnt worry at all.

All liquids now days have preservatives in them so give them a shake and see if the liquid itself is not like it normally is when added to a glass of water.

If it's really Detorated the liquid will split and normally develop lumps which is rotten organic material.

But be careful as some liquids already appear this way.

Best bet is to buy some new ones that are identical and do a test comparismeant .
