Hygiene in the kitchen can become better!

Did you know that kitchen sponges are one of the most common breeding grounds for bacteria in your home?

Fino knows and values the importance of kitchen hygiene; we are here to share essential tips on maintaining a cleaner and safer kitchen environment.

Why Kitchen Sponges Need Extra Attention
Research shows that sponges are among the most contaminated household items. With their moist environment and trapped food particles, they can harbor up to 5.4* billion bacteria per cubic centimeter. Over 362 species of bacteria have been identified on sponges, including harmful ones like Salmonella, E. Coli, and Staphylococcus aureus.

*Microbiome analysis and homofocal microscopy of used sponges reveal mass colonization by Acinetobacter,  Moraxella, Chryseobacterium | Recommended average frequency of change is every 2 weeks depending on use and the size of each household.

How can we stay better protected against bacteria?

To reduce the risk of bacterial growth, it’s crucial to replace your kitchen sponge every 2 weeks. Regularly changing your sponge decreases contamination risks. The frequency may vary based on usage, washing habits, and the size of your household, but a replacement every 2 weeks is strongly recommended.

Tips to Keep Your Sponge Cleaner for Longer

  • Rinse thoroughly: Wash your sponge with plenty of water after each use.
  • Drain properly: Squeeze out excess water to minimize moisture.
  • Dry completely: Let the sponge air-dry in sunlight or hang it over the sink to ensure it dries thoroughly.
  • Replace frequently: Don’t wait—change your sponge often!
