Some items in the kitchen are important to change regularly.
Otherwise, they may become an ideal breeding ground for various harmful bacteria.
Dr. Gareth Knight spoke in more detail about this, as reported by Mirror journalists.
It is noted that kitchen rags require special attention.
Sometimes they are left damp in the sink and are not washed as often as other household items.
It is also necessary to take into account that this item is constantly in contact with food and various contaminants.
Therefore, due to moisture and heat, microbes can “bloom” on such rags.
And they can have a negative impact on health and cause various infections.
To avoid unpleasant consequences, kitchen rags should be changed regularly.
It is advisable to rinse them with an antibacterial agent every two days. After that, they need to be thoroughly dried.
Also, rags need to be dried after each use.
In addition, the specialist drew attention to the fact that special antibacterial wipes can be used.
For example, they can be used to wipe surfaces after preparing raw meat.
