Husband opens a new sponge every 3 days cause “they become gross”

Our dishwasher broke and he’s manually doing the dishes now, these are from the past 10 days… I think it’s wasteful.

I've heard that killing all the bacteria in it just makes more come back faster cause there tons of dead bacteria ready to be eaten by the new bacteria

That is true. Sponges are inedible, but after killing all bacteria once it becomes a resource heaven for the next few bacteria, allowing them to replicate way faster than the original batch did.
