I just wanted to let you know that the hanging and washing suggestions you gave me are working wonderfully!

No stinky cloths or sponges so far…

Thank you. I’ve always known that using cloths was better for the environment too, but I was always unsure as to how t deal with the bacteria that might grow in cloths or sponges.

I appreciate your response:-)

Hi Darvin,

Bacteria like wet cloths, so I always hang them up to dry. If the weather is damp and cool and the microfiber cloths are unlikely to dry quickly yes I would put them in the laundry after every use. Or if I still lived in a modern home I would simply hang them on the radiator to dry.

Hey a quick question… the main reason I haven’t liked using rags in the past is because I believe that bacteria can grow in the as they sit on the sink or wherever. How do you avoid this? Do you throw them in the wash after each use?

These tips are perfect for my situation. Given the recession, these tips will help my family save the money we would have spent on cleaning supplies. Also, we have a newborn, and I would prefer not to expose him to chemicals.

I’m with youon the commercial green cleaners – so much of them are nonsense really! Dirty Boots are the future! Love the idea of a Dirty Boots Gardening Club! So sad that people could join a gardening group if they hire gardeners – I’d be too ashamed!
