How do you clean/maintain your pump accessories?
Do you boil the accessories or just run them under hot water after every use? We currently don't have a dishwasher (kitchen under renovation).

I wash them with soap and hot water after each use. I do throw them in the dishwasher for that extra washing about once a week. The pump itself I wipe down with the medela clothes or you can just use clorax wipes. Good luck.

I pump at work, so on those days I use the Medela sterilizer bags. At home I use old fashion soap and water.

I wash mine with soap and hot water after each use as well. I bought extra pieces so that I can wash everything after every other pumping session.

I did soap and water and then the steam bags made by Medela.
Also after you are done pumping you should run the pump with the hoses still attached for another 5 mins or so to get rid of any moisture in their or they could grow moldy and then you can't use them anymore.

I use those Medela steam bags while out or the dishwasher.
