how to clean a dishwashing sponge?

The dishwashing sponge is proven to be one of the dirtiest kitchen items. This is according to a series of experiments conducted by the Myth Busters Results. So I have listed several ways to clean a sponge:

One:  Wash a sponge in cold water using a detergent soap or anti-bacterial detergent. Don’t use hot water for it will absorb more bacteria.

Two:  Soak in water with vinegar solution for 5 to 10 minutes. This will kill bacteria.

Three:  Rinse, drain well and let it dry.

Four:  Never leave it on a bowl or soap dish soaked in water.

Bonus tip:  For best results, replace a sponge for 3 to 5 days.
