Hi All,

Just wondering how you guy's all clean out your,
- Water Bottles,
- Tanks,
- Wooden toys.

I'm asking because I want an idea of what kind of products (if any) you all use.
Also does anyone put the water bottles (run-a-round balls) in the dish washer? I want to try it, but i don't want them to get warped.

I'd like to find a way to sanitize my water bottles in a way that won't affect them or the animals. I had taken out a water bottle and replaced it with a new one a while back (I belive when Gumba came home) anyways, I found it last night and thought i'd use it for the 2 boys (Jimmy & Dakota), when i opened it I saw FLOATIES ! ! ! :eek: YUCK!
It looks as if the vitamins I had palced in the water (and had now left for weeks) had gone bad. It was pretty disgusting. I can't really get anything 'inside' the bottle to give it a good scrub, and am thinking of tossing it, but If i do i won't have a emergency spare. So that's where my idea to post and ask what everyone elses meathods were! :)

I use a baby bottle brush, for the water bottles. Also for vitamins, you can try the liquid vitamin for them.

I actually used to the Liquid Vitamins, but found they contained not even half of the vitamins teh powered did, so i decided to switch and see how they worked out. Next to the icky thing, The only reason it got that way is b/c i left it in a box lol... all my water bottled are flushed at LEAST once a week. I also find teh powder not to last as long, so i'm not always putting the vitamins in the water (I'm sure there diets give them enough anyways) pretty much mom, pups and anyone looking a little under the weather get vitaims in there water.

You know i have a baby brush 'somewhere' that i got just for that purpose.. no clue where the heck i put it thogh lol...
Do you use any kind of cleaners?

I don't use cleaners, I don't trust them. I only use hot water and a bottle bush.
