Maybe I should! posted by: heavyarms (reply) post date: 03.01.07 (2:54 pm) I wouldn't even recommend doing that. When it comes to cleaning and sanitizing my kitchen, I stick to scrub brushes, scotchguard pads and paper towels. Most of the illnesses we suffer from in this country that are usually diagnosed as "a bug" or "a 24 hour virus" are not that at all, but a food-borne illness which is usually the result of poor sanitation practices in the kitchen. Using the microwave may be effective, but just leaving a sponge in your kitchen means you're taking the chance that someone (your mother-in-law, sister, child) may not do it and use that bio-hazard to clean your dishes. A microwave doesn't work if there is no moisture present(even if you microwave an empty ceramic plate in the microwave, it only gets hot because there is a small amount of moisture left in the "dry" material), so you must microwave a wet sponge in order to kill the bacteria. The microwave is not going to dry the sponge so you're taking a warm, wet sponge out of the microwave. Bacteria love warm, wet, dark environments, (like the interior of a sponge) so I can't imagine it wouldn't be too long before some more of the little critters move right back in. Does that study say WHEN they tested the sponges for bacteria? Was it right after they were removed from the microwave, or a few hours later? That's not taking into account that sponges trap food particles. Even if you kill every single bacteria when you microwave it, if there is even a tiny bit of food stuck in there bacteria are just going to move right back in. posted by: LadyG (reply) post date: 03.01.07 (5:27 pm) Thanks for the info., good to know. posted by: lostin2007 (reply) post date: 03.02.07 (1:02 am) I didn't know microwaves would do that. I stopped using sponges forever ago because of the bacteria. I usually just use paper towels. Thanks for the info. |
