Question

When washing dishes, it is better to use a dish rag or a sponge??

Answer 1

I use a sponge but everyother day I soak them in hot bleach water for about an hour.

Answer 2

I prefer a dish rag, but it's really up to your own preference. If you choose a sponge, however, don't forget that they need to be laundered in hot water, the way you would with a dish rag. Sponges hold a lot of germs.

Answer 3

I would suggest a dish rag (and changing it often)as opposed to a sponge. Sponge soak up and hold bacteria more than a wash cloth.
