Hints from Heloise - Recycling Kitchen Sponges

By

Dear Heloise: Are there any recycling ideas for used kitchen sponges? I buy the kind with the sponge on one side and scrubber on the other. I use one for a couple of weeks (regularly disinfecting it with bleach), but I hate to throw it away when I replace it.

Dear Judy: Yes, Judy, there are a couple of things you can do. A lot of readers "downgrade" kitchen sponges and make them the bathroom sponge for cleaning the showers and toilets. Be sure to snip a corner to identify the sponge.

You also can use the sponge only for floor spot cleaning. Just make sure you remember what function the sponge is now serving, and place it where it isn't accidentally used for its old kitchen duties. Ick!
