Hello!

I have gone through 5 dummies in the past couple of months. Does anyone have any good tips to keep them clean and get rid of bad breath smells without using chemicals?

  • Just boil them for 5 minutes, I do this with tooth brushes too


  • I would sterilize them the same way you sterilize milk bottles and teats.


  • I was fortunate to receive a steriliser and tablets as a gift so used to use it for everything . Boiling them in a pot of water is the old fashion way which I used for teats , but wouldn’t recommend for dummies due to the plastic parts.


  • Wash in hot, soapy water. Rinse well and sterilise with your bottles in the microwave steriliser.


  • I boil them for 5 min too..


  • Soak them in boiling hot water for 5 minutes before sterilising.


  • Use sterilising tablets as for baby’s bottles or run them under hot water.


  • Isat mine in a mug of hot water for 10 minss


  • Boil them like you are sterilising bottles!


  • boil them and wipe with an antibacterial wipe


  • ive always boiled mine for 5 mins


  • rinse in water and sterilise in microwave for only about a minute


  • hi there, how r u going have u tried boiling them.

  • wouldnt you just boil them for about 5 mins?
