How to Clean and Prevent Mold in Bath Toys

If your kids are like mine, the first thing they do when you put them in the bathtub is grab their toys and put them directly in their mouths. Initially, I didn’t think this was that much of a problem until my son squeezed his rubber ducky and I noticed mold lurking in the inside of the toy. Much to my dismay, I grabbed the toy and realized I needed to get better at keeping bath toys clean. We’ve gathered up some tips from around the web and given you all you need to know to make sure that your child’s bath is good “clean” fun.

Plug the holes- Many bath toys, especially ones that sq**rt water or squeak have holes the bottom which can be a target for water to enter and mold to grow. Place a dab of hot glue on these toys before placing them in the bath and you’ll create a water-proof seal on the toy.
Boil the toys- If you didn’t get a chance to seal your child’s toys and want to make sure they are safe you can take the toys and boil them in hot water and squeeze out any of the “yuck” from the insides. Let dry thoroughly.
Bleach kills mold- Simply allow the toys to soak in a bleach bath overnight. To make, mix ¾ cup of bleach with one gallon of water. Rinse toys with water multiple times then allow to air-dry. The bleach will evaporate and all you’ll be left with are clean toys!

In the wash- Running bath toys through the dishwasher also sanitizes and kills any gunk or mold that may be growing on both the inside and out.

With all of these methods, it’s still a good idea to make sure that you throw out any toy that seems “dark” in the inside and keep the kids away from the cleaning process. Afterall, you want your child’s bath to be a place where they can get clean, not be exposed to dirty toys.
