In order to prevent milk fermentation and mildew in the baby bottle, after each feeding, the remaining milk should be poured out immediately, and the bottle and nipple should be cleaned with a milk brush. After boiling the boiling water, the baby bottle is opened and put into the boiling water. The boiling time is 15-30 minutes. The specific method is as follows:
1. Prepare a stainless steel cooking pot filled with cold water. The depth of the water should cover all the cleaned feeding utensils. (Stainless steel pots should be special for sterilizing milk bottles and should not be mixed with other cooking foods at home)

Cover the pot cap and boil for 3-5 minutes. Turn off the fire after the water is cooled a little. Then take out the nipple and bottle cap with the sterilized bottle clip, and put it back on the bottle after drying. If plastic baby bottle, wait for water to boil, then put the bottle, nipple and bottle cap together into the pot to disinfect, boil for about 3 to 5 minutes, and finally use the disinfected baby bottle clip to pick up all utensils, and put them in a clean ventilated place, and drain them upside down.
