I use tampons for drying her butthole. When I take them out it still feels a little damp so I still use the pump.
Use a leather auto chamois for her vagina for excess water.
It never feels completely dry to me without using air as well as something to soak up water.
Not gonna take a chance with mold so I'll stick to my way.
Never had a mold issue in almost 4 years doing things this way.
Gonna stick to it and stay mold free.
that's why I use 2 if the first one pulled out feels damp, but that's just extra cautious because those tampons are designed to soak a lot of liquid, so just because they are damp does not mean they didn't soak up all the water... I know you wash her in vertical position like I do so gravity already got 99% of the water out anyway... My 6 dolls (sold 1, so only 5 now) have been mold free for about a year, which is more than long enough to know if there's a mold problem... but to each his own... I was only pointing out why I think one method is more cumbersome than the other.
btw, I occasionally open up a cavity and shine a skinny flashlight down the tunnel as far as I can, and I'm satisfied so far... I figure if there's mold way at the end of the tunnel, it would eventually work its way toward the opening and I would see it... but how do you know for sure, right now, if there's no mold at the very end where you cannot see? With silicone dolls like yours, you can take comfort in the fact that silicone is not porous, so less likely to absorb water than tpe, but that's about it... you can't be sure either... am I not correct?
I know silicone is less likely for mold. That is one of the many reasons I went with silicone.
Without moisture, there can be no mold.
Every time I am done drying her, I stick my middle finger in there to feel for moisture and I can reach the back wall of her vaginal cavity.
Its always bone dry. If not, I use air until it is.
No moisture= no mold. That is how I'm sure.
Also, if you can't reach the back end of the cavity with your finger, mold has a smell.
If you can't smell anything, the chances are very high that you do not have any mold in there.
I have also read on the forum that pieces of tampon can come off inside and cause a mold problem.
That, for me, is another reason to stick with the auto chamois and air pump.
I use tampons in her butthole because it is angled different and I can't touch the back wall.
This is why I don't bang her in the ass much because it is harder to dry and I don't like using tampons. I just leave the airpump in her butt a little longer to be safe.
Her asshole smells clean as the day she arrived, so I know there is no mold in there.
Since reading about tampons leaving material behind and causing mold, I may figure a way to use the chamois in her ass all the way in using a chopstick or something to shove it back far enough. I will still finish with the air pump either way.
I will just continue with my methods because they have worked for me for 3 years and nine months.
I don't give a shit about tbe pump being noisy. And I just hang the chamois to dry out for next time.
