Sponges
Place a sponge in the dishwasher, attached to one of the pegs with a clothespin, and run through a cycle with other dishes.
Sanitize in tub with 1/2 gallon of water and 1/4 cup bleach.

Cleaning Patio Furniture
- White plastic furniture – Use dishwasher soap to clean – this type of soap usually contains bleach. Mix about 3 teaspoons of soap to 1 gallon of warm water. Wash the furniture, rinse well, and let the sun dry it. Make sure you keep the soap off the grass or plants. The bleach may kill them. Make sure you rinse very well if it happens.
- Colored plastic furniture – Use non-bleach liquid dish soap. Make sure you rinse very well and turn the furniture upside down to dry.
