I rinse these in water,squeeze them out, and put them in the microwave for 2-3 minutes to kill any germs.
I run mine thru the dishwasher.
I put mine in the dishwasher to clean - it even sanitizes them.
I run mine through the dishwasher as well, then I microwave them for 2 minutes. I've been doing it for years. Works like a charm!!

Hi Judy, i saw ur question over on the hometalk site where the girl made a beautiful curtain to hide her washer and dryer. You were wondering what u could do that was similar but you couldn't put a track up ? How about a closet pole and screw 2 large screw eyes into ceiling and insert closet pole ? Or even if you need the curtain to hang down farther, you can still do it that way but just use heavy duty fishing line, tie it to each end of closet pole (or a large dowel) and then tie to the screw eyes in ceiling. The second way means you could use a pretty shower curtain or even premade curtains (if you couldn't afford full length curtains. Anyway, just a couple ideas for you, hope one works !
