Safest way to disinfect baby toys
I personally wipe everyyhing down with baby ganics toy cleaner. Its all natural no toxins. I like thrir products. Use their cleaning products for the house and their dryer sheets.

Since the weather is nice out, I would take it outside and scrub it down with warm water and soap and then rinse with the hose. Use a scrub brush to scrub the surfaces etc.

I spray everything with diluted white vinegar. It's a great natural cleaner and cheap!! Plus, the smell only lasts a few minutes! Lol.

This is what I do would for a first time cleaning of a hand-me-down. After that, use breast pump wipes. I had them just for toys.

I use Clorox wipes then baby wipes if its from a buy/sell since it could have been hanging out in someone's garage. For wiping their toys and play mat I use Clorox green works wipes. I use the spray too for their highchairs.

Lavender oil has great disinfecting properties. Mix that with white vinegar which is also fantastic for cleaning.

I noticed that some babyganic products don't disinfect so I used Clorox everywhere spray on toys that need to be disinfected. Even the green works don't disinfect

This! Clorox anywhere spray is diluted enough to be safe on baby toys, pet bowls etc- but still actually disinfects and kills many bacterias and viruses. Spray it on- let it sit for 2 minutes then rinse WELL with hot water.

Either the babyganics toy cleaner, vinegar/water solution, and if it's completely plastic and can be submerged in water I'll just use hot water and soap.

Where do you buy essential oils (sorry if that's a stupid question, lol).
