[quote=Anonymous]We use a dish cloth for wiping our hands after washing them in the sink. For countertop spills, we use sponges and rinse them. They can be disinfected in about 30 seconds in the microwave when they start to feel icky. If I must use a paper towel because the stuff feels particularly icky, I'll tear off the smallest size possible from a corner and use that. For floor spills, I reuse pieces of paper, or tissue paper, or brown paper that come into the house with mail, or purchases that used some type of paper for packing. Just wet it first--it feels like a slightly rough paper towel but does the trick. Then throw in the compost bin. We are just about to finish the last package of paper towels I bought--from Costco during the pandemic.[/quote]
