How many minutes should baby pacifiers be boiled?

When you want to sterilize baby pacifiers by boiling, place them in a clean pot with enough water to cover them, and boil for exactly 5 minutes. This time is enough to effectively kill harmful germs without damaging the structure of silicone or latex pacifiers. After boiling, use tongs to remove the pacifier and let it air-dry on a clean cloth. You can sterilize this way a few times a week; for daily cleaning, washing with hot soapy water and rinsing thoroughly is enough. If you notice wear, cracks, or stickiness, replace the pacifier right away.
