Believe it or not, dishwashers actually need to be cleaned periodically. You would think that as they clean dishes, they themselves get clean, but they actually don't; the food particles they clean off the dishes can get stuck and cause bad odors or even mold without proper cleaning, which results in less efficient dishwashing. But how do you clean a dishwasher? By following this handy how-to guide posted on bobvila.com called "How To: Clean a Dishwasher". The guide details every step of the process. All you'll need is:
- 1 cup plain white vinegar (or unsweetened lemonade mix)
- 1 cup baking soda
- 1 cup bleach (if your dishwasher has built up mold)
So click the link and follow the how-to guide's simple steps for a cleaner, more efficient dishwasher.
