[Gpdd] Health: Poop Contamination

[Lydia Boland]

We throw all the bowls/crocks in the dishwasher with all of our other 
dishes.  We've never had cross-contamination.  If I don't have time to 
load the dishwasher right away then they sit in one of the sinks or on 
the left side of the sinks with other dirty dishes.  The bottles we 
wash by hand because they are plastic and we really have to get in 
there with a sponge and scrubber.  I recently bought a tiny bottle 
scrubber that cleans the metal tube of the water bottle.  We didn't 
realize how icky they were until we got that.  You could probably also 
use a pipe cleaner or a Q-tip.  We bought the Lixit Economy Bottle/Tube 
Brush for $1.99 at http://www.rabbitstop.com/ .  My husband didn't 
think the bottle brush was very good but the tube brush is great.  We 
use a heavy duty bottle brush that we bought at Bed, Bath & Beyond for 
the bottles.
