How to clean a sponge and how often you should replace it

  How to clean a sponge and how often you should replace it You probably use it every day — multiple times a day if you don’t have a dishwasher — but are you sure that the kitchen sponge you're using to wipe dirty dishes is safe? A study I read from 2017 says probably not. Researchers in Germany found that icky RG2-related bacteria (the kind that can cause foodborne disease) stays on your sponge even if you clean it in the microwave or in boiling water. “From a long-term perspective, sponge sanitation methods appear not sufficient to effectively reduce the bacterial load in kitchen sponges and might even increase the shares of RG2-related bacteria,” the researchers also wrote in the paper that they went on to suggest we should be changing our sponges EVERY WEEK, adding that it’s an easily affordable option for staying hygienic.

High-end pleated filters can last as long as 6 months, but these typical guidelines assume average use and don't take into account the size and type of filter. Air filter model Total indoor air quality Number of pets Household size Air pollution levels and new construction around the residence For basic 1"–3" air filters, manufacturers typically tell you to replace them every 30–60 days. If you suffer from light to moderate allergies, you could install a better air filter or replace them even more regularly.
