Things You'll Need:
- dishwasher
- dishwasher detergent
- hydrogen peroxide
-
Step 1
Assess the damage - is the toy completely overgrown or just a little spotty? If it's completely overgrown submerge it in a half and half solution of hydrogen peroxide and water for an hour. If it's just spotty, skip this step.
-
Step 2
Pop the toy in the dishwasher. Easy right?
Use a little extra detergent like you would for greasy pots and pans. -
Step 3
Run the heavy-duty wash cycle and voila! The toy should come out good as new and the dishwasher can even get into the holes you can't reach. If there is still some spotting, re-soak ducky in peroxide and run it through again.

on 5/11/2008 I like these ideas, but don't have a dishwasher. I'll definitely start the monthly hydrogen peroxide soaks for the toys though!
