It is nice to know that when it's done everything is hot and dry -- no more waiting for them to air dry.</end quote></div>

I bought this too months ago and love it. But I use it to dry my nebs only as opposed to laying all the neb pieces on paper towels to dry overnight. I still sterilze by boiling first because it does not specifically say that it kills PA, cepacia, mycobacteria or other bugs we cfer's are concerned about picking up. I put too much time into my treatments and would rather be safe than sorry. I do recommend it for drying nebs quickly and thoroughly.<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">

Hi mum2kj, i'm pretty sure they would ship to Aust as it states on the site the germ guardian is not available in any target store, but is available online. So i assume its available online everywhere. hmmmmm, might have to pop into a target store and ask them to find out for you (just a thought).

As for sterilising with the milton, you stated you soak the items for 15min. I think they are supposed to be soaked for a minimum of 1 hour (otherwise they are not sterile).
Also rinsing them in water after sterilising them in the Milton contaminates them all over again. The reason i know all this is because when Olivia was born and we were both realy sick we were trasfered to the royal hosp for women and they have realy strict procedures in steriling baby bottles. It was drilled into me on a daily basis.lol

Just thought i would let you know. Pm me if you have any further questions.

Its me again. I forgot to ask, why is it important to dry the items?

I mean, if sterilise them and then leave them on the counter to dry don't they just get re contaminated by air born bacteria, dust or germs. Just curious, can anyone answer this for me.<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif" border="0">

Thanks in advance<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Wherever there is moisture, there are germs. Even after you sterilize, bacteria begin to grow wherever there is water.

These bacteria will die once the water is dry <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
