what do you use to steralize baby's toys?

We just had a friend over with a 2 year old and she was playing with Mikey's toys. I want to disinfect them. what is safe to use?
Alcohol? Lysol?

1 tsp bleach to a quart of water - put in spray bottle and spray. I believe that is the right ratio, I emailed my friend to verify. She's a day care provider and was told that in her training. If that is the right ratio (I jsut can't remember what she told me) then you don't have to rinse it with water, just spray and wipe down with a clean towel or paper towel.

Just make sure you have an industrial type bottle (that can be bought in Home Depot) since the bleach tends to clog - a regular spray bottle will clog up a lot, or so she told me.

This is what I use too. If you really want a good cleaning after another child with a cold has been slobbering all over everything, I think most plastic toys can be put through the dishwasher (top rack).

Or just set them aside for a day, the germs don't live very long.

I use toxin-free cleaning products (melaleuca). I dont know if id feel comfortable using certain things on toys that they put in their mouth (infants and small toddlers)
