Wait, kitchen sponges are also some of the germiest spots? The same sponges that you regularly clean with and soak in soapy water? Yes, indeed.

Kitchen sponges actually carry colonies of bacteria, especially the one called Moraxella Osloensis which can cause serious infections such as bacteremia (bacteria in the bloodstream) in even healthy children.

Though you may think that you thoroughly clean your kitchen sponge, make sure to wash it and disinfect it since sponges are used all the time on dirty surfaces and are the closest to food and your kids’ reach given the fact that they’re kept in the kitchen.
