But the sponge ... Sponges for the dishes are a whole seedler of microbes and intestinal sticks! Yes Yes! Do not be surprised! After all, in them is always humidity, always food, residues of food, which are not fully removed, and this is a real feast for intestinal sticks.
We declare microbes war! We will hold hard disinfection, and where do you think?! In the microwave! Thanks to microwave radiation, all microbes will die!
After dinner, waving all the dishes, thoroughly rinse under running water with a sponge detergent, in order to remove all the remains of food.
Put the sponge into the microwave and turn it on the entire power of 1 minute.
That's all! All microbes are destroyed under high microwave radiation!
And such disinfection needs to be held with them every day!
Another small advice. Drying (hooks, etc.) for a sponge hang inside the sink so that all flowing water from them does not flow on the wall for the sink, but remained all inside the sink.
And change the sponge for washing the dishes, at least once every two weeks!
Also act with a cloth for the table. Ride under running water, and also into the microwave to full power for 1 minute.
Thus, the rag is completely disinfected, and it does not have any smell.
That's all! Not a single microbe left!
