| No idea tbh, but I'm sure I saw on a tv prog that you can put them in the freezer and that will kill the bacteria - I could be wrong tho? Hopefully someone else will come along and advise? |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Lots of toys can be washed but for the ones that cant, I bag them and stick them in the freezer overnight x |

I'm Currently Feeling: | You can wipe toys down and dettol spray is safe on toys work tops highhcair walker trays etc thats what I do.
Milton wipes as someone suggested
As for the steriliser I'd be careful what you put in many plastic don't like that kind of heat.
Tbh we're clean people we wash things down we always boiled her dummies etc but your baby has to be prone to some stuff for the immune system to kick in ...my Moo has been a healthy bunny 95% of her time up to this day!
