How do I clean and sanitize my sex toys?

Like any other tools or toys, sex toys need proper care to ensure that it continues to give you pleasure. In addition to choosing the right type of lubricant, they need to be cleaned and sanitized to maintain their quality and durability.

For most erotic toys and users, regular cleaning is sufficient. However, in special cases, thorough sanitization may be necessary.

When does toy cleaning suffice?

If your toys are used only for you and have not been shared with anyone else and used for the same purpose or specific body part, then simply cleaning the toy is sufficient. You can wipe with a clean cloth, use a toy cleaner or rinse with water and a mild, odorless soap. Since you are only removing bacteria from the surface of the toy, this simple method will adequately address hygiene concerns.

When is sanitizing or sterilizing necessary?

Sanitization or sterilization is essential in the following instances:

If a toy has been used anally and you intend to use it orally or vaginally.

When planning to share the toy with another person or partner.

If you have an STI or yeast infection and wish to prevent reintroduction of infection.

Sanitizing methods include:

Running the toy through a dishwasher on the “sanitize cycle” (without soap).

Boiling the toy in water for 3 to 4 minutes.

Immersing the toy in a bleach solution (ensuring thorough rinsing and cleaning afterward).

Utilizing a UV sanitizing system.

Remember, only non-porous materials can be effectively sanitized. This includes metal, ceramic, glass, silicone, ABS plastic, and some specially treated wood in the case of sex toys.

Cleaning Vibrators

Cleaning vibrators varies depending on their type and manufacturer. For waterproof vibrators, cleaning involves scrubbing with an unscented, gentle soap or toy cleaner under running water in the sink. A toothbrush can help clean intricate surface features, preventing the accumulation of lube or bodily fluids in crevices that could harbor bacteria. This method suits silicone and ABS plastic toys. If you own a TPR/TPE toy, consulting the manufacturer's care instructions is advised. Even non-waterproof toys can often be cleaned using this sink method, but if uncertain, use a toy cleaner wipe or alcohol wipe.

Certain vibrating toys feature detachable vibrating components, allowing for thorough cleaning of specific parts while keeping sensitive electrical sections away from water and various chemicals.

Toys crafted from jelly, rubber, or "skin-like" materials (commonly found in strokers) pose cleaning challenges. Review the manufacturer's guidance for proper care. If opting for cleaning with bleach or alcohol, ensure a thorough rinse afterward.

These materials are typically porous and may contain chemicals like phthalates. It's advisable to cover them with condoms during use as they are not considered body-safe. It's worth noting that we don't sell dildos or other penetrative toys using these materials due to safety concerns.

Cleaning Non-Vibrating Dildos

Cleaning non-vibrating dildos is relatively simpler compared to vibrators as they lack electronic components. Depending on the materials used, various cleaning methods mentioned previously can be applied. This includes options for sterilization or sanitization. Particularly, dildos crafted from non-porous materials such as silicone, metal, wood, glass, and ceramic are straightforward to clean. They are durable, safe for reuse, and can be effectively sanitized.

Cleaning Anal toys

Anal toys require thorough cleaning after each use due to the presence of anal bacteria that can be harmful when introduced to other areas besides the anus. If you intend to use a toy both anally and vaginally or orally, it's crucial to sanitize it in between uses. This applies when using toys across multiple orifices or with different partners, necessitating materials that can be sterilized.

Furthermore, some anal toys, particularly silicone ones, may develop odor over time. Sterilization can assist in addressing this issue. Alternatively, soaking the toy in a vinegar solution (50/50 vinegar and water) or exposing it to direct sunlight for several days can help alleviate odors.

The same cleaning principles mentioned previously should be followed for the most effective sanitation.

Storage

Ensure that after choosing a cleaning or sanitizing method, you thoroughly rinse and dry your toys before returning them to storage.

For toys with replaceable batteries, manufacturers generally advise removing them before storing to prevent corrosion that could damage the toy. Additionally, remember to turn off the toys and activate any travel locks, if available, to avoid unexpected battery drainage.

Silicone toys are best stored in cloth bags to prevent them from collecting lint.

Consider using a lockable box or drawer for added privacy or if there are children or pets in the house.

Toys made of high-quality materials can be stored in various ways. However, avoid storing latex, jelly, or PVC toys together, as these materials can release substances that degrade or damage each other over time.

Properly caring for your toy ensures its longevity and continued enjoyment

Investing in a quality toy is a financial commitment, and maintaining it with proper cleaning, storage, and suitable lubrication will preserve its value, ensuring ongoing satisfaction and pleasure for years to come.

2. Organic Cotton Baby Clothes

Fast fashion is not only harmful to the environment but also exposes babies to synthetic fibers and chemicals. Choosing organic cotton baby clothes ensures your newborn wears soft, breathable, and toxin-free fabrics. Look for brands that use GOTS-certified organic cotton, which guarantees ethical production and sustainability.

3. Bamboo Baby Wipes

Standard baby wipes contain plastic fibers that take years to break down. Bamboo baby wipes are biodegradable, ultra-soft, and free from alcohol and synthetic fragrances, making them ideal for a newborn’s sensitive skin. They are a perfect addition to your baby essential kit, ensuring hassle-free and sustainable diaper changes.

4. Natural and Non-Toxic Skincare Products

Newborns have delicate skin that absorbs everything applied to it. Conventional baby skincare products often contain parabens, artificial fragrances, and harsh chemicals. Opt for organic baby lotions, oils, and soaps made with plant-based ingredients like shea butter, coconut oil, and aloe vera. These natural alternatives protect your baby’s skin while ensuring no toxic residues are left behind.

5. Sustainable Feeding Essentials

For parents who choose to bottle-feed, consider glass baby bottles instead of plastic ones. Glass is non-toxic, durable, and fully recyclable. If breastfeeding, look for organic cotton nursing pads and reusable breast milk storage bags, which are environmentally friendly and reduce single-use plastic waste.

6. Eco-Friendly Baby Bedding

Newborns spend most of their time sleeping, so ensuring they rest in a safe and chemical-free environment is essential. Opt for organic cotton or bamboo crib sheets, blankets, and mattresses free from synthetic materials. Avoid flame-retardant-treated bedding, as it may contain harmful chemicals.

7. Wooden and Natural Fiber Toys

Plastic toys often contain BPA, phthalates, and other harmful substances. Instead, choose wooden toys made from sustainably sourced materials, organic cotton plushies, or natural rubber teething rings. These options are not only safer but also biodegradable, making them a great addition to your newborn’s essentials.

8. Reusable Cloth Wipes and Towels

Instead of single-use paper towels or synthetic washcloths, go for organic cotton or bamboo washcloths. They are reusable, soft on the baby’s skin, and ideal for cleaning up spills, bath time, and diaper changes. They are an essential part of an eco-friendly baby essential kit.

9. Sustainable Baby Carriers and Swaddles

Opt for organic cotton baby wraps, slings, or carriers that are free from synthetic dyes and harmful chemicals. They provide comfort for both the baby and parent while promoting closeness and bonding. Swaddles made from muslin or bamboo fabric are breathable and perfect for keeping your newborn snug.

10. Chemical-Free Laundry Detergents

Regular laundry detergents contain harsh chemicals and artificial fragrances that may irritate a newborn’s skin. Using an eco-friendly baby detergent made from plant-based ingredients ensures that baby clothes, bedding, and diapers remain free from harmful residues.

How to Build an Eco-Friendly Baby Essential Kit

To make sustainable parenting easier, consider creating an eco-friendly baby essential kit that includes:

Cloth Diapers (SuperBottoms UNO) – Reusable, skin-friendly, and sustainable.

Bamboo Wipes – Biodegradable and chemical-free.

Organic Cotton Onesies & Swaddles – Soft and breathable fabric for newborn comfort.

Natural Baby Skincare Products – Free from harmful chemicals.

Glass Baby Bottles – Durable, non-toxic, and eco-friendly.

Wooden Toys – Sustainable and safe for newborns.

Reusable Cloth Wipes & Washcloths – Ideal for multi-purpose use.

Benefits of Choosing Sustainable Baby Essentials

1. Healthier for Your Baby

Eco-friendly baby products are free from toxic chemicals, making them safer for your newborn’s delicate skin and respiratory system.

2. Environmentally Friendly

Using reusable and biodegradable products reduces waste and prevents pollution, ensuring a better planet for future generations.

While some sustainable baby products may have a higher upfront cost, they save money in the long run due to their reusability and durability.

Most eco-friendly baby essentials come from brands that prioritize fair trade, ethical labor practices, and sustainable sourcing.

Conclusion

By opting for reusable, organic, and biodegradable products, parents can significantly reduce their environmental footprint while ensuring their little ones get the best start in life. Whether it’s cloth diapers from SuperBottoms, bamboo wipes, or wooden toys, every small switch contributes to a sustainable future.

The Ultimate Guide to Silicone Feeding Sets for Your Little One

As parents, ensuring a safe and enjoyable mealtime experience for your baby is a top priority. One of the best ways to achieve this is by using a silicone feeding set. These feeding sets are designed to make feeding time easier, safer, and more convenient for both parents and babies. At Teeny Cherubs, we offer high-quality, BPA-free, and eco-friendly silicone feeding sets that are perfect for your little one. In this guide, we will explore the benefits of silicone feeding sets and why they are an essential addition to your baby’s mealtime routine.

What Is a Silicone Feeding Set?

A silicone feeding set typically includes items such as a divided plate, suction bowl, spoon, fork, and a silicone bib. These sets are made from food-grade silicone, ensuring that they are non-toxic, BPA-free, and safe for babies. They are designed to withstand daily use, making them an excellent investment for parents who prioritize durability and hygiene.

Benefits of Using a Silicone Feeding Set

1. Safety and Non-Toxic Materials

Silicone is an excellent material for baby products because it is free from harmful chemicals such as BPA, phthalates, and PVC. Unlike plastic, which can leach toxins into food, silicone is 100% food-safe, ensuring that your baby’s meals are free from contaminants.

2. Durability and Longevity

Unlike traditional plastic or glass feeding sets, Silicone Feeding Sets are highly durable. They do not break or crack easily, making them ideal for babies who are just learning to eat independently. They can withstand extreme temperatures, allowing them to be safely used in microwaves, ovens, and dishwashers.

3. Easy to Clean and Maintain

Cleaning up after meals can be a hassle, but silicone feeding sets make the process much easier. These sets are dishwasher-safe and stain-resistant, ensuring that they remain hygienic and fresh for every mealtime. The non-porous surface of silicone prevents bacteria buildup, making it a safer option for babies.

4. Suction Base to Reduce Mess

One of the biggest challenges parents face during mealtime is the mess caused by babies knocking over plates and bowls. Silicone feeding sets often come with a suction base that firmly sticks to high chairs and tables, preventing spills and reducing messes.

5. Soft and Gentle for Teething Babies

Babies often chew on their spoons or bowls while eating. Unlike hard plastic or metal, silicone feeding sets are soft and gentle on their delicate gums, making mealtime a more comfortable experience for teething infants.

Why Choose Teeny Cherubs for Your Silicone Feeding Set?

How Bagasse Plates Improve Food Safety and Visual Appeal in Events

In recent years, event organizers have increasingly turned to eco-friendly solutions to meet the growing demand for sustainable practices. One such solution that has gained popularity is bagasse plates. Made from the fibrous byproduct of sugarcane processing, bagasse plates are not only environmentally responsible but also offer significant advantages in terms of food safety and presentation. This article delves into how bagasse plates enhance both these critical aspects in event catering.

1. Food Safety Benefits of Bagasse Plates

a. Non-Toxic and Chemical-Free: Unlike plastic or Styrofoam alternatives, bagasse plates are free from harmful chemicals like BPA, phthalates, and other toxins that can leach into food, especially when exposed to heat. This makes them a safer choice for serving hot and cold dishes alike.

b. Heat Resistance: Bagasse plates can withstand high temperatures without warping or releasing harmful substances. They are microwave-safe and suitable for serving hot foods directly, reducing the risk of contamination that often comes with reheating food in plastic containers.

c. Sturdy and Leak-Resistant: Their durable structure minimizes the risk of spills and leaks, which can lead to cross-contamination. This sturdiness ensures that even saucy or greasy foods are contained securely, maintaining hygiene during transport and serving.

d. Moisture Absorption: Bagasse naturally absorbs excess moisture, which helps keep food fresh and prevents sogginess. This is particularly beneficial for events where food may sit out for extended periods.

2. Enhancing Visual Appeal with Bagasse Plates

a. Natural Aesthetic: The organic look of bagasse plates adds a rustic charm to food presentation, aligning well with eco-themed events, weddings, and outdoor gatherings. Their earthy tones complement colorful dishes, making the food visually appealing.

b. Versatile Design: Available in various shapes and sizes, bagasse plates cater to different culinary presentations—from appetizers and main courses to desserts. Their clean, minimalist design allows the food to be the focal point, enhancing the overall dining experience.

c. Consistent Presentation: Unlike flimsy plastic or paper plates that can bend under weight, bagasse plates maintain their form. This stability ensures that dishes are presented neatly, whether served at a buffet or a formal sit-down event.

d. Customization Options: Many suppliers offer customization options, such as embossing logos or event themes onto the plates. This adds a personalized touch, making events more memorable while reinforcing brand identity for corporate gatherings.

3. Environmental Impact as a Value-Added Appeal

While food safety and aesthetics are primary considerations, the environmental benefits of bagasse plates also contribute to their appeal. They are biodegradable and compostable, breaking down naturally without leaving harmful residues. This eco-friendly attribute resonates with environmentally conscious attendees and adds value to the event’s image.

4. Ideal Events for Bagasse Plates

Bagasse plates are suitable for a wide range of events:

Babies learn cause-and- effect connections and improve control over their motions as they work with the pieces. All important abilities for learning and development, this kind of play also increases attention, concentration, and patience.

Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Choice

Baby wooden toys are a great option for parents that consider their surroundings. Since wood is a renewable resource, many producers of goods employ sustainably obtained wood.

For environmentally-aware households, choosing wooden toys for your baby helps sustainability and eco-friendly behavior.

Furthermore, handmade wooden toys are generally of great quality, and stand out from mass-produced plastic substitutes. This guarantees that they are lovely items fit for passing down through generations in addition to making them a wonderful investment.

Aesthetic and Timeless Appeal

Simple yet lovely designs abound in baby wooden toys. Parents searching for toys that fit a minimalist or nature-inspired style may find attraction in their frequently natural, rustic design.
