Sponge got grunge?

It is important to clean the break room on a regular basis. Have you ever stopped to wonder how many germs live on a kitchen sponge? From cleaning up break room spills, to dirty dishes those sponges see a lot of germs daily. Here is how you can keep those community break room sponges sanitary for everyday office use. Do this weekly to make those sponges last longer and prevent them from becoming moldy (and prevent that smelly odor they can get!)

1. Rinse sponge thoroughly to remove all remaining soap in hot running water squeezing the sponge until the water runs clear.
2. Dip in clean water and make sure it is completely wet.
3. Microwave for 30 seconds at a time until hot. This ensures the sponge doesn’t dry out and catch fire.
4. Use tongs to remove from microwave and rinse.
5. Let completely dry.
