10 KITCHEN SPONGE :

"NO! I TRUSTED YOU!!!"

Now it just seems like I'm messing with your head. But I'm not. It's true. The very sponge that takes the grit off of your dishes and bathroom sink, is really the dirtiest of them all. The yellow and green icon of the kitchen is really a cozy home for germs. Its moist, micro-crevices make it harder to disinfect, so instead of wiping surfaces clean with a sponge, users are really just transferring bacteria from one place to another. An easy remedy is to microwave the sponge for 60 seconds--it improves the odor too!

SOME MORE INFORMATION:

Zap away bugs.
Kitchen sponges are the No. 1 source of germs in the whole house. Why? The moist, micro-crevices that make a sponge such an effective cleaning device also make it a cozy home for germs and more difficult to disinfect. Wiping your counters or dishes with a dirty sponge will only transfer the bacteria from one item to another. "Wet your sponge and then pop it in the microwave for two minutes to eliminate the germs that lurk inside the crevices," says Neil Schachter, MD, medical director of respiratory care at Mount Sinai in New York City, and the author of The Good Doctor's Guide to Colds and Flu.

11 DOOR KNOBS :

A lot of people wash their hands before leaving the bathroom but a lot of people don't. Modern door knobs are designed with anti-bacterial properties but they take hours to kill bacteria and non-bacterial door knobs have it even worse. Hands are one of the dirtiest parts of the human body and all of that bacteria just gets put right onto door knobs and transferred onto your own hands.

12 FRIDGE HANDLES :

The reasons behind this one are the same as the door knob except it is even worse as when someone is sick in your family they will probably be touching the fridge a lot and transferring bacteria to everyone else in the family. Since nobody ever cleans fridge handles the bacteria stays and has a lot of time to multiple and grow.

13 SHIFTER KNOB :

Same as the Fridge Handle and Door Knob, the Shifter Knob in your car gets touched all the time but is rarely cleaned. Imagine all the fast food and money you have handled right before putting your hand right back on the Shifter Knob. Maybe now is a good time to clean it?
