besides diluted bleach, what can I use to disinfect Chase's toys?

I really, really don't want to use bleach on his toys. I'm just terrified of that for some reason. Is there anything else I can use to disinfect his toys? Anything that can go in his mouth, I've already put in the dishwasher, but for like his exersaucer and bigger toys that can't go in the dishwasher, I want something safe, but effective. Any suggestions?!

I use Dapple products. They are supposed to be baby safe. I don't think they kill cold germs and stuff like bleach or lysol would but for stuff that only he uses I feel like it's fine. I use their bottle/dish soap and the spray or wipes for toys.

I always used gentle soap and water , I would never use anything with bleach for my DD's toys , plus it's really not good to use antibacterial stuff on anything , even on your hands. (maybe in daycare/school and anywhere else yes, but not at home) We need some germs Chat Icon

Thanks, this is normally how I handle his toys, but he has a stomach virus now. I should have specified that. I want this out of the house and off his toysChat Icon
