I use wash cloths made with natural fibers and wash them with my towels. It works fantastic and we've had them for 3+ years now with minimal wear!

[@lifewithfibro1656]

How do sanitize those? Would you boil them to kill germs?

[@oulafursson]

yeah, you can boil them or soak them in vinegar water or just throw in the washing machine with other stuff

[@kikirikikikki]

omg. I dont boil my scrub daddy!!! Is it germy!!????

[@NikkiDavis]

​@@kikirikikikki scrub daddies can go in the microwave (no more than 60 sec) or in the dishwasher for sanitization

[@kikirikikikki]

@@NikkiDavisI was half kidding. I run my sponges and brushes under scalding hot water to sanitize. My mom onced asked me how do I clean my oven with only dawn soap. I told her the secret to my sucess is boiling hot water. Hot water is the holy grail. I also switch out my dish sponge every three months. which I thought was a responsible amount. I use 4 per year. its probably too much. In other news. Someone posted a video from inside the dishwasher. and its mostly dirty water swooshing around untill the last cycle for rinsing. I wouldnt put any absorbent items in there. Edit: I dont do potlucks because some people wash their dishwashing utensils with their crusty socks and their pet beds and their bathmats

[@katsmith9732]

Can you expound on the wet wood and possible bacteria? Is there a safe way to clean them?

[@ItsaRandomista]

There’s also reusable chainmail scrubbers for tough dishes like cast iron

[@marianneelliot-hansen]

You can get a coconut brush for the toilet bowl thats with a longer handle. Really nice one

[@blabla22222]

What do you recommend for cleaning ceramic cookware and nonstick so we don’t scratch it? Looking for eco friendly ideas. Thanks!

[@marybethmckissack1346]

all great ideas but where to buy them? I see these alternatives in stores wrapped in plastic

[@amumof2347]

Do you have preset boxes based on rooms? Like a suggested bathroom starter box? Kitchen box? Travel box? Etc

[@kikirikikikki]

this is a brilliant idea. please go execute it and become very rich

[@jessicacody7264]

In addition to these awesome tools, we use a 'chainmail' washcloth to clean the large griddle cooktop and the cast iron pans when things are really stuck on

[@SD-wr8rm]

Thanks for showing these products, where do you get them?

[@loveofearthco]

My shop! I own a zero waste store: www.loveofearthco.com 🌟

[@loveofearthco]

Sorry about that I am new to KZbin!

[@Colin.Smith.Pianist]

I LOVE these. However... I use Caraway cookware and I really want something sustainable but soft/sensitive on the ceramic lined pots. Any ideas? I used Grove for a while but tbh there's plastic waste

[@nancybatra-tt7qm]

What do you use for non stick pan I want make a switch but don’t want to buy new pan until this one is bad

[@dakota.skyler]

How do I discard of them if I don't have access to a compost?

[@Mica-24]

I hate the way any sponge feels while its got gunk on it scrub brush all the way

[@corymaher9983]

Except for the finish on the wood which is probably polyurethane....

[@nikkifangaiuiha6081]

I love all these brushes but can't find much here,😬😬😬🤥
