You probably don't need to clean your harmonicas every week. I personally will just deep-clean my harps every once in a while (in fact, I'm probably overdue for a cleaning session). I generally follow the deep clean procedure from https://www.wikihow.com/Clean-a-Harmonica. Just remember to never get wood combs wet!
