Over the years, The Gadgeteer has told you about a variety of devices that use UV light to sanitize your gadgets and gear or even your carpets. (Check the links at the end of this post to read about some of these products.) There’s one potentially very germy item in your home that hasn’t been addressed yet – the kitchen sponge. Sure, you can boil it in the microwave to sanitize it, but where’s the fun in that? Instead, use the Disinfecting Sponge Holder by Lori Greiner to clean your sponge with UV light. The box measures 5.5″ long X 4.25″ wide X 3″ tall. It’s powered by 3 AA batteries (not included) or by the included AC adapter. The Disinfecting Sponge Holder by Lori Greiner is available for $19.97 at QVC.

or just throw the sponge into the microwave…
You are right… not much fun in that 🙂
The MAYO Clinic has determined that microwaving sponges makes them spawn MORE germs.
