Odors, dirt and other particles can accumulate on an adult bath sponge that is left sitting outside a bathtub or shower. Placing these items in a washing machine may cause rips or tears in the sponge. A simple mixture can remove both germs and odors from your adult bath sponge without the sponge being torn or otherwise damaged by a washing machine.

Instructions

1
Fill a bucket or a sink with equal parts water and white distilled vinegar.

2
Add 1 tbsp. of the bleach-free liquid dish soap to the liquid.

3
Place the adult bath sponge in the bucket or sink. Make sure the entire sponge is submerged.

4
Soak the sponge for about 30 minutes. Then, remove the sponge from the solution.

5
Rinse the sponge thoroughly with water from the faucet.

6
Inspect the bath sponge, and repeat the cleaning process if necessary.

7
Hang the bath sponge so it can air-dry.
