Silicone Sponge Uses

Not so long ago, I came across an interesting thing in a store — a small silicone dishwashing sponge. It looked much more durable than regular sponges. I also thought it was perfect for scraping off food from nonstick cookware, so I bought it.

After testing the new product, I was convinced that this was a great purchase. The sponge effortlessly cleans the dishes, even if you forgot to soak them beforehand. Besides, it doesn’t scratch the surface.

Surprisingly, the advantages don’t end there. I went further and decided to find other uses for this scrubber. I suggest you try them too!

How to Use a Silicone Sponge

Cleaning Vegetables

It is especially convenient to use the sponge to peel young potatoes and carrots. It also helps to wash the beets much faster before cooking.

Speed Cleaning the Bathroom

Go over the tiles and sink in the bathroom with this sponge to get rid of soap deposits and other stains. After that, it is enough to wipe the surface with a dry cloth.

Removing Pet Hair from Furniture

Just a few movements is enough to collect the pet’s hair from your favorite sofa.

Placing the Sponge in the Washing Machine

After the experiment with furniture, I thought that the sponge could also help me clean my clothes. While loading the washing machine, I added the sponge to my laundry. After the cycle, I took it out and saw how much hair and dirt it collected.

The silicone sponge not only helps the clothes get clean but also prevents the washing machine from getting clogged.

Now it is my irreplaceable assistant! If it gets dirty, I just boil it and the sponge is as good as new. I liked using it so much that I bought a few more for different needs. Have you tried such scrubbers? Share your experience in the comments!

Like many people nowadays, I love to explore new places. My favorite type is slow travelling, when you can really blend in with locals and learn about new cultures and languages. But I think there are also perfect times for enjoying freshly baked pastry, a cup of fragrant coffee, and a good movie in the comfort of your own home. I guess I'm kind of a cultural omnivore, and I watch different types of movies, but the ones about art and food inspire me the most!
