clip, clean, repeat: steripod makes it easy as 1, 2, 3 :: review

disclaimer no giveaway

steri Oh, the toothbrush. Keeper of clean teeth. Giver of white smiles. And sadly, a bristle-filled germ-fest, if you have kids like mine who leave theirs in unexplainable places, like under a bookshelf or in the middle of the living room floor. The germophobe in me dies a little each time I see them pop that toothbrush in their little mouths without first dousing it in boiling hot water. But alas, I am a mom, and such things are inevitable. And I have to imagine it was a mom just like me who invented the steripod, a simple little clip-on that covers your toothbrush and KILLS. THE. GERMS. Insert sigh of relief here.

So here is how the steripod works: 1. open up the package; 2. clip it on your toothbrush; 3. let it do its magic. It is so easy! You don’t have to plug it in or insert batteries or sing it a little song before it goes to work. It is self-motivated to clean (if only I could say the same about myself!). Now here is the technical version:

Enclosed inside each steripod toothbrush protector is a laboratory formulated thymol compound. The compound is encapsulated in plastic with small holes that allow the thymol vapors to escape and surround your brush bristles. It’s the vapors that do all the work – see our research page for the test results if you like. The entire steripod is shipped sealed in a medical quality enclosure – ensuring that the compound is not activated [by air flow] before you unwrap. All you have to do is clip the steripod on your brush! – no batteries, no socket, no hassle!

My three little munchkins have been using their steripods for a few weeks now and I am ecstatic that I no longer have to worry about the germs going into their mouths when they brush their teeth. As an added bonus, they all love how fun their toothbrush clip is and that they get to put it back on after they are done. They each have their own color so they know whose is whose (Pink = Reagan, Blue = Benjamin, Green = Madison). Toothbrush + toy = win win for everyone!! Sold online and at Beth Bath & Beyond and Wal-Mart, this product is an absolute necessity for every family. No joke!!

    I would love to have these. I just read an article about how germs get spread from toothbrushes in a toothbrush holder and this would help to alleviate the germ spreading. These are unique.
