I clean mine with laundry detergent and a brush using the garden hose. After calling a game, spray it with Fabreeze, but let it dry out before you put it in yor bag.

You can find arena's and sporting goods stores that will clean your equipment, if you can't find one use febreeze and you can put the softer equipment in the washing machine ie. pants, jock strap or shorts and maybe shoulder pads(depending if they are flexible enough) and elbow pads depend on how big your washing machine is. For shin pads I never tried it but you could try a carpet cleaner I mean its made from the same stuff as a couch. But to prevent the build up the smell you should air out your equipment on a close line in your basement, or a sports equipment rack.

Soak, file, scrub, cream.  That's how I would do it.

Leather oil, put a baseball in it and shape it how you want it, put rubber bands around it and throw it in the freezer overnight.

For hard surfaces it is best to use a 1:100 solution of diluted bleach (1 tablespoon bleach in 1 quart water).  For soft surfaces like couches or rugs steam cleaning will probably be the best way to get rid of the MRSA and everything that can be put in the washing machine (blankets, pillows, towels, etc) and washed on the warm or hot cycle at least twice then dried in the dryer.  And try to make sure you wash everything!  Including things that you may consider already clean (like clothing in your closet and dresser) as they could have been contaminated.

How to reduce allergens around the home:\n\n•Use HEPA Air Filters In Every Room Where You Spend A Lot Of Time.\noHEPA stands for High Efficiency Particulate Air, and a HEPA filter captures 99.97% of all particles. 3 microns or larger. That's 240 times smaller than the width of a human hair. \n•Keep Humidity Low.\noMoisture is a breeding ground for dust mites and mold. Keep humidity below 50% by using an air conditioner in the summer and a dehumidifier in the winter.\n•Install Filters In Your Heating/Cooling Systems.\noFilters are easy to install on most systems, and they seal off an often-overlooked allergen pathway into your home. \n•Replace Wall-to-Wall Carpeting With Washable Rugs.\noCarpets are a breeding ground for dust mites, mold, bateria, and other irritants that can aggravate allergy and asthma symptoms.\n\n•Vacuum Thoroughly And Often.\noIf removing carpeting isn't an option, it's important to vacuum frequently. But beware of traditional vacuums. They actually spew more dust, pollen, mold, pet dander, and bacteria into the air than they remove. \n•Replace Heavy Curtains And Draperies With Washable, Lightweight Curtains.\noMold, bacteria, dust mites, and other airborne allergens thrive in thick curtains and drapes, just as they do in deep carpets.\n\nHow to reduce dust around the home:\n\n•Encase Your Bedding In Allergy Relief Products.\noThis first step is essential, because, right now, millions of dust mites are thriving in your mattress and pillows. Putting mite-proof encasings on all your bedding, including your box spring and comforter, creates a protective barrier so you can sleep soundly and symptom-free. \n\n•Wash Sheets And Pillowcases Often.\noIt's important to do this once a week. If you wash your linens with AllerWash, you can wash them in any temperature. If not, be sure to use hot water.\n\n•Store Clothing In Drawers And Closets.\noKeep them closed to minimize dust. This, in turn, will prevent mites from breeding.\n\n•Clean And Treat Your Carpets, Rugs, And Upholstered Furniture.\noIf possible, avoid carpeting and upholstered furniture altogether. If this is not an option, treat with a solution designed to neutralize dust mite allergens. \n\nHow to protect against pet dander:\n\n•PROTECT YOURSELF AGAINST PET DANDER\noDander forms on animal's skin and fur, causing your allergy miseries. Unfortunately, the only sure-fire way to end your suffering is to remove the pet. If your not willing to part with your furry companion, here are some specific steps you can take to minimize your reaction.\n\n•Control Where Your Pet Sleeps.\noDon't allow your pet to sleep in your bedroom. Use a pet blanket or other bedding that can be washed frequently in hot water.\n\n•Bathe And Treat Your Pet's Coat.\noUse a pet shampoo that is specially formulated to reduce dander. Also use a dander-inhibiting solution.\n\n•Use A HEPA Filter.\n\nMINIMIZE MOLD\nBathrooms, basements, and kitchens are common areas for mold, but mold flourish in virtually any warm, moist, poorly lit area-such as behind wall paper, under carpets, and in air ducts. \n•Install Exhaust Fans.\noExhaust fans in the kitchen and bathroom help keep humidity low so mold can't thrive as easily.\n\n•Use A Safe But Strong Cleaning Solution.\noBe sure it's one specially formulated to eliminate mold and mildew. Then apply a chemical-free mold inhibiting treatment. Doing both produces the most effective solution.\n\n•Limit Houseplants Inside Your Home.\noMold grows on plants and in potting soil. Using an allergen sealing spray on those you keep helps prevent mold spores from becoming airborne.\n\n•Store Old Books Properly.\noBooks, especially old ones, are a major source of mold. Store them in tightly sealed containers under very low humidity.

What I have found is best is that you can remove the ball by twisting the bottom plate, and use alcohol & a q-tip. Just dip the q-tip in the alcohol, shake off the excess, you dont want it to drip, just to be moist. Just gently rub the grime away. Always use alcohol, due to the fact that it evaporates very quickly..... Done deal! \n\nAfterwards, you can also blow out the mouse with air can, like the others described. It will work well to remove the loose dust, but wont get rid of the grime.

Use a no rub solution.  No, take them out and let them sit in the case for a few hours.

What is your cleaning regiment? I would suggest that you clean it twice a day with Dye-free, fragrence-free anti-bacterial handsoap and then also do a sea salt soak. Its best to do both, soak with the salt solution and then cleanse with the soap solution. \n1. In a glass of warm water (to dissolve the salt) stir about a half a teaspoon of sea salt in. (At the grocery store they will carry grindable sea salt on the baking aisle. I find this easier to use and also you can measure it out easier). Get some cotton pads (Little squares of cotton sold near the cosmetics) and soak it in the salt solution. Then while you are laying down, lay the pad on top of the piercing. Let it rest there for about 8 - 10 minutes. \n2. After the salt soak, clean the piercing with warm water and the anti-bactieral soap. Using a Q-Tip will make it easier so that you can direct the water and soap into the crevases. Make sure to work the jewelry around so that the cleaner gets into the peircing. This step will take about 5 minutes.

With a good glove, soaking in water is great..then dry.  The only problem with Neatsfoot oil is that it drys the leather eventually.  Go to a Tack Store or Pet Supplies and find something called Bag Balm.  It is a salve and used on cattle...so it works well on cowhide :).  I have a 40 year old Wilson A-2000 that is still soft and supple and I used Bag Balm to lubricate the entire glove once a year and the pocket after each game or practice.  After it dries and you oil it.  Beat the pocket with the fat end of a baseball bat to soften the pocket even more....and playing catch with it is always good.

1.   Use your glove often. Playing catch is the best way to break in a new baseball glove.  \n  \n2.   Rub the pocket linings of the glove with linseed oil, saddle soap or shaving cream.  \n  \n3.   Let the glove dry on its own if it gets wet - placing it near a heat source or using a hair dryer will cause the leather to crack.  \n  \n4.   Place a baseball in the glove's pocket when the glove is not in use, and wrap a rubber band tightly around the glove; this will gradually give it a catching shape.
