So I did something really dumb the other day. I went to go to the bathroom (yes, #2) and 'forgot' that I had the Emigi inserted. Guess what happened...yup, Emigi fell in the toilet! Fortunately nothing else had..but still, I want to sterilize it. Does anyone know if it can be boiled? I scanned through about half the reviews but it wasn't mentioned, nor did a google search of the company turn up anything. Thanks in advance.
Can this toy be sterilized?

Yes, it can be sterilized, but not by boiling. Another contributor wanted to know the same thing a while back, so I tested mine with rubbing alcohol. I soaked it in 70% Isopropyl Alcohol for 8 minutes, and the Emigi came out looking fine. I'm not sure whether it's safe to boil the Emigi, because it appears to be glued together in the middle or something, and I didn't want to take the risk melting it in boiling water.

It is completely non-porous, so yes!

You can sanitize it with 10% bleach solution. Sterilizing it would require an autoclave.

The bleach sounds like a great idea. I also thought of hydrogen peroxide.
