I know that this thread is a repeated one, but I am really confused about it.
I have a Jelly realistic dildo and I clean it using antibacterial soap and water. I read in the forum that that is not enought and bacterias are still there.
Can I boil it?
I know that everybody recommends silicone dildos, but this one is an old one and my favourite.
No, you can't boil jelly sex toys. They will melt. They can't cope with heat. The reason people say that it has bacteria remaining is because it's a porous material. You can clean the surface but bacteria will gather in the pores of the toy.
I don't like to recommend jelly at all but if you do like the toy, don't use it for more than one orifice (anal and vaginal or vaginal and oral for example) and check it for mold spots or material changes regularly. If there's any signs of changes, replace it.
If you are currently using it for multiple orificies then I'd recommend stopping this and buying another if possible that can be kept for one purpose and the one you have now for another. This just stops bacteria going from anus to vagina and prevents infections :)
Try putting through the dishwasher on 55c the detergent alone will kill anything off that's why you can use it for babies bottles.
If you put toys through a dishwasher they need to go in without detergent on a sanitize setting. Wouldn't recommend putting anything porous in there. Babies bottles tend to be made from hard plastic which is why they can go in there safely :)

You have a point perhaps silicone would be better?
