How I Never Throw My Sponges.

How I Never Throw My Sponges.

Are you tired of your sponges smelling to die for? My tip will help you.

Nothing worse than a small sponge placed innocently on the edge of the sink. You only have to use it two or three times for it to fill the whole room with the worst smells this world has ever known.

And the result is always the same:to avoid fainting each time you enter, you resign yourself to throwing away the poor stinky sponge after a few uses.

Stop the killing! There is an unstoppable trick for disinfecting your sponge:soak it for 24 hours in hot lemon water.It will come out like new!

I repeat this operation almost every week, I pour all the juice of a lemon into a basin of water and I let it soak until the next day.

Sponges are breeding grounds for bacteria , my trick gets rid of them permanently.

There you go, you know everything. Tell me in the comments if the trick worked for you and if you know of another so you don't have to buy sponges every four mornings.

Savings Achieved

A sponge costs on average around 3 or 4€. Personally, I find it a bit expensive for a disgusting and smelly little thing that you have to throw away after 5 uses.

No, really, it's better to wash your sponge and reuse it as much as you want (well, before it falls apart in the sink). For my part, by using only one or two sponges per year, I save around 10€ per month and more than 100€ per year . Magical, huh?
