We use to sterilize both our teats,bottles and caps but now everything is
just decontaminated  according to the lastest information from the Central
Sterilizing and infection conttrol communities.

they are sent back to us bundled up in various amounts sealled in plastic
bags.We date the bag when we open them them so that they can be sent back
for re-decontaminatation if they're used up in a reasonable amount of time.

We store the teats and caps in 'tupperware-like" storage containers with a
tight lid so they are not exposed to the air.
