Mould on bath toys: what to bin, and how to clean the rest

Bin hollow squeeze toys you cannot rinse and dry inside. Wash hard, open toys and dry them out of the tub. First Light is for the bath, the caddy and the silicone around them, not a toy soak.

Which toys can be saved

Hollow squeeze toys and toys that stay wet inside usually go. Hard, open plastic can be washed and fully dried. Do not invent a way to save a toy you cannot dry on the inside.

Clean the bath and the caddy

The toys sit in a wet dish. Treat the caddy, the bath edges and the silicone. Do not soak toys in First Light.

Dry storage after the bath

Use a draining caddy, not a shut wet bag. The bathroom room method is how to stop mould in a bathroom with no window. A child's bedroom is mould in a kids' room, a different job.
