This is the introduction paragraph. The intro should be short, concise, and give viewers an idea of what the whole blog post will be 

about.

Anal toys come into contact with more bacteria than most other types of sex toys. Failing to clean them properly can result in:

• Bacterial infections
• Irritation or odor
• Cross-contamination between partners or body parts

Good cleaning habits ensure your play stays safe, enjoyable, and healthy.

Not all butt plugs are made the same — and how you clean them depends entirely on the material. Here's how to clean the most common types:

• Silicone

Wash with warm water and mild, fragrance-free soap. For a deeper clean, you can boil it for 3–5 minutes — but only if it doesn’t contain electronic parts.

• Glass

Use warm water and soap to wash it thoroughly. You can also boil it or put it in the dishwasher (without detergent). Just make sure to avoid extreme temperature changes to prevent cracking.

• Stainless Steel

Very easy to clean — use warm soapy water, or boil it. It’s also safe to put in the dishwasher without detergent.

• ABS Plastic

Use antibacterial soap and water. Do not soak it in water, and avoid high heat. Not suitable for boiling.

• Jelly or Rubber (not recommended)

These materials are porous and can harbor bacteria even after washing. Use with a condom for safety, and replace them frequently.

⚠️ Tip: Never use bleach, alcohol, or harsh chemicals on your toys — especially if they’re made from porous materials. Stick with gentle, body-safe cleansers.

• Rinse Immediately: Rinse off any debris under warm running water.
• Apply Mild Soap: Use fragrance-free, antibacterial soap or toy cleaner.
• Scrub Gently: Use fingers or a soft-bristle brush to reach grooves or textures.
• Rinse Again Thoroughly: Remove all soap residue.
• Sanitize (If Applicable): For silicone, stainless steel, or glass, boil for deeper sterilization.
• Dry Completely: Air dry or pat with a clean towel.
• Store Safely: Use a breathable bag or case to keep dust and bacteria away.

Even if it's already been cleaned post-use, clean again before every session to remove dust, lint, or residue from storage.

• Always use water-based lubricant with silicone toys.
• Wash your hands before and after use.
• Never share anal toys between people without using barrier protection (like condoms).
• Check toys for cracks or damage regularly.

The conclusion should wrap up the content of the whole post in a 2-3-sentence paragraph.
