Dr.'s advice during cold and flu season

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I just thought about something today that you may find helpful.

When my children were younger they constantly passed colds and

viruses all around the family. I mentioned it to our then family Dr.

who said that toothbrushes were the number one cause of family

sharing viruses because they touch each other, or the kids get them

mixed up. He suggested his patients put the toothbrushes in

mouthwash to kill anything. So I got those child yogurt cups and

separated the brushes apart with mouthwash in each cup, then changed

the mouthwash every couple of days. It was a huge decrease in virus

sharing right away. I don't do it anymore since they are older, but

do still use mouthwash cups during an episode of cold or flu, then

throw the brushes away when everyone gets over it. It was the best

suggestion I received for cutting the viruses down. Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Joni

Around here we put all the toothbrushes in the dishwasher when there is something going around. You can do it everyday if you want, or on a need basis. It beats having to throw away toothbrushes after every illness. (With 5 kids, I need to save every penny I can!) Do you know all the things you can do with a Hotmail account? Click here!

Hi ,

I didn't think of that- do you have to put them in the top rack or

can they be put in the basket on the bottom. Also, do you use

detergent or just water?

Thanks,

Joni

I put them in the bottom basket. We usually just throw them in with the other dishes and make sure we use the hot cycle. So far we havent melted one, hope the streak continues!
