Negative! Do not do this! The plastic will melt or start to deform if you leave it in there too long. Plus, a big no-no, the shine on the whistle will fade because of the hot water. The black will turn to an off dull black. Vinegar sounds the best to me because we use this to clean other things like coffee makers, etc. Leave it in over night, soak it in mouthwash before storing in your bag.

Actually, might not be a bad idea to do this treatment to your spare whistle in case one of your partners forgets theirs. They will appreciate the mouth-wash treatment.
