An Oboe reed can get moldy over time if it isn't properly cleaned after being used. It's a good idea to wipe it off after using it, perhaps blowing on it a couple of times after taking it out of the oboe to get any excess water out of it. Letting it sit out for awhile to dry before you put it back in its case helps prevent mold from growing, too.
