unpleasant smell in flask.

[HeresTheScaryThingBooyhoo]

how can i get it out? i have washed it in hot soapy water and i have also put bleach in hot water in it but the smell is still there. it smells a bit sour milk/musty.

Milton?

milton or denture tablets

A good scoop of bicarbonate of soda and top up with boiling water. Leave overnight and rinse.

ooh thank you. i have some milton in a bottle but it is about 6 years old. would it still be ok to use?

Bicarb would work if you have some. Milton will sterilze it but there's nothing in it to help remove smells. Bicarb will neutralise the nasty niff.

ok will go for the bicarb then and maybe use milton after then to sterilise it. thanks.

I use denture tabs in mine, always takes away the smell.

sterident

I'm assuming you've made sure you've scrubbed/wiped the inside down including in any corners? I find a bottle brush good for getting into crevices.
