Whenever you clean a thing, you’re really just making
something else dirty. It’s something to think about the next time you switch on
the vacuum or load your washing machine. The machines that clean our stuff need
to be cleaned themselves from time to time. Even your trusty dishwasher needs a
bit of TLC now and then. First, take out the racks, filter and utensil holders.
Soak them in a tub of warm water and a cup of white vinegar. Remove all loose
gunk with paper towels; clear corners and spray holes with toothpicks or an old
toothbrush. Pay special attention to the door seals. Run through a cycle with
just a cup of vinegar in a glass bowl. Sprinkle a cup of baking soda and cycle
again before replacing the racks, utensil holders and filter. You’ll want to
repeat this about once a month to keep the dishwasher looking (and working) in
top condition.
