BEWARE!  There has been a recent study to suggest a lot of people have been sick resulting from the build up of bacteria on dish sponges. The study also stated you can put the sponges in the microwave to kill all the bacteria; thus, preventing you from getting sick.

But BEWARE!  You MUST have the sponge soaked in water before putting it in the microwave. Don’t, I repeat DON’T put the sponge in the microwave dry. This is shown to burn up the sponge, and possibly cause a fire. This is with only 2 minutes in the microwave. Just remember to WET the sponge prior to placing it in the microwave.
