How to clean squirter bath toys

Destructo got three sets of squirty bath tub toys for Christmas.  He loves them, but I hate them because they are so conducive to growing mold inside them.  I squirt all the water out of them after each bath, but have still had problems with mold showing up.  I found this article on the Real Simple magazine website today and thought  I would share.

  1. We had that problem and I ended up just throwing them out.

    1. That is my next move if cleaning them doesn't work. Luckily the moldy ones aren't the two he loves.

    1. Thanks for stopping by. With a blog title like that, I have to stop by. My husband calls me a freak for liking grits with sugar in them. I have finally met a kindred spirit. LOL

    1. Thanks. I am just so tired of finding mildew in them. I am hoping this helps extend their toy life.

  5. Sorry it took me forever to get here and thank you, but I'm really glad you linked this up with Monday Mom Musings. I have had a really tough time debating on whether or not to toss squirty bath toys. No more!

    1. Yep that is why I posted it. I knew I could not be the only mom to suffer this debilitating decision. To throw away or not to throw away that is the question. Thanks for following me.
