Just make sure it is all well soaked or wetted with the hot water. I normally use water that is a little bit hotter than 140 if my stuff is wet and either pore it over the laces etc or set it in. I don't think it has to be a set time, just that the heat and water penetrate all areas. Most invasive species die at 110 degrees. My felt soles get the longest soaking treatment.
Boats etc are sprayed with the hot water at AIS wash sites. It is basically the same process.
My problem was that I was out on extended trips and needed a way to make sure my stuff would not carry anything from one place to the next. I do the same for my rubber soled boots as I do to the felt.
