Not a bad idea to put them upside down so they dry completely.
The other thing to watch (apart from UV decay) is losing the washers in the caps. Don't always assume they're still there!
Isn't experience wonderful? DL
I've always emptied them out and put the lid back on tight to stop insects getting in. Store the plastic containers out of sunlight, which degrades the plastic and causes bacteria growth. When I go to use them, I just rinse them out. No problems so far.
