When I moonlighted as a Labtechnician at a mine site we kept the probes in deionised water (from a RO machine) but I don't think in our case that is warranted. Used to gently dab it on a fresh clean piece of paper towel before using it and rinsing it between moving from solution to solution. As for storage, rinse it clean, I'd dab it dry rather than shaking it (not because shaking will damage it or throw out the callibration, but because it might dislodge the batteries :laughing-rolling: )... then, when dry, store it somewhere where it won't get bumped around or can fall... pretty simple really.
Once this unit poops itself, I might try the litmus papers suggested on another thread on pH testing...
