Dishwashing sponges are often exposed to stains, so there is a risk of germs and bacteria growing on them. Not to mention, this kitchen tool is often left damp in the kitchen, which makes it easy for germs to breed. Usually, a dirty sponge is characterized by its odor or appearance that is starting to become dirty.

One way to prevent germs from growing on sponges is to clean them regularly and store them dry. On the other hand, there are also those who choose to wash it periodically using the technique of soaking it in a solution of vinegar and baking soda. However, not everyone always has a stock of these two ingredients at home, right?

So, you can copy this trick from TikTok account user @verena.sepasthika to keep your sponges germ-free. After investigating, this woman only needed two simple ingredients to get rid of germs on the sponge.

Taking a peek at @verena.sepasthika's TikTok upload which has been watched 2 million times, quite a few netizens have left various comments. There are those who claim to be inspired by this trick or have other tricks that are considered no less effective in keeping sponges clean.

" Thanks for the info sis, but I'm a team that washes dishes immediately after eating/cooking (just wash them a little bit), I can imagine if I had to wash them a little bit, rinse them with hot water and rinse them, " said TikTok @ACT.

" So, after washing the dishes, I just squeeze the sponge until it's dry so it doesn't smell & there aren't a lot of germs, " said TikTok @illy.

" You want to use a sponge or coir, as long as you finish using it, rinse it clean, don't soak it in the remaining soapy water to wash cooking and eating utensils ," said TikTok @Tyasmissyou.

Not only that, you also need to prepare one more ingredient, namely hot water. The owner of the TikTok account @verena.sepasthika usually uses hot water that has just boiled after boiling. After that, immediately flush the sponge with hot water. "Flush it onto the sponge, let it sit for 3 minutes," emphasized the owner of the TikTok account @verena.sepasthika, quoted by BrilioFood on Monday (15/7).
