Do you wash cleaning cloths with normal laundry?

PS Would certainly wash cat's bedding separately!

I use a sponge to wash dishes and wipe down benches and it gets put in the dishwasher with the pans. If not using a sponge I use biodegradable wipes so they get thrown away.
Im not sure why you would need to boil tea towels, surely you only use them to dry clean dishes, or dry wet hands.

Most washing powders contain an amount of bleach (hydrogen peroxide) so will do a fair job of cleaning. We need a bit of immunity anyway!

As wash cloths and tea towels are changed every day I don’t see a problem with outting them in with my normal wash.

Dusters go in with my jeans

My husband does anything with anything so it is only me that separates into colours. If I can squirrel away the tea towels until I have a load, I do because the normal 40 degree wash is not really enough to take away the smells and stains. My husband is a devil for using the tea towels for anything too so I am particularly squeamish about it.
My daughter made me washable kitchen roll too so they go in with the tea towels.
I don't think it matters if you can get things clean enough how you wash them but I must admit I gagged at the thought of washing stuff in with the cat's bedding. The thought of my tea towels wiping my crockery and being left with cat hairs is just ? to me. I try not to wipe anything with a tea towel much preferring for it to dry naturally after being well rinsed in hot water but once again, DH cannot agree on that one. At the end of the day, I need his help and the price I pay is to accept he does things his way with the exception of glasses!

In with whites and disinfectant 60c wash

In with the white wash and environmentally friendly concentrated laundry liquid and a good splosh of old fashioned dettol.

Oh dear! I usually do mine and OH washing in separate loads. His load has been known to include tea towels (often), the dogs water cloths (frequently) and even the dogs bedding (once).
Don't judge me!!!

I wash mine on a 40 cotton wash with towels, dishcloths and e-clothes, using laundry detergent (no conditioner) and a good splash of white vinegar in the conditioner compartment. Works a treat, they are soft and clean my windows, work tops, sink and shower panels with NO SMEARS

I have microfibre cloths which are used for wiping down the cooker and tops, and tea towels to dry the items that have to be hand washed. These go into the machine for a hot wash when I have a pile big enough to justify doing so - about every four days or so.
Bathroom cleaning cloths and dusters get thown into a bucket under the utiltity room sink and when I have no clean ones left they go into the machine on a very hot wash. I don't think I would like dusters with polish residue, or bathroom cleaning cloths in with my towels, tea towels or ordinary clothing.

They go in a 90 degree wash along with knickers, tea towels. If 90 degrees will kill germs, it will kill em all!

90°wash with towels. If its been used for something horrible then it gets rinsed out very well first or I will throw it away. I use old rags as cleaning cloths so throwing them away is no big deal.

I use a sponge with scourer on reverse side and thrown out every week. All cleaning is done with kitchen roll. Toilet is cleaned with toilet brush. Surrounding area with toilet paper & spray bleach then flushed.

I wash tea towels, hand towels, dishcloths with underpants and bed linen on a hot cycle, never less than 90 degrees centigrade.

Dusters and floor cloths I wash on their own and cloths that have been used for cleaning silver and brass are either washed by hand or discarded after use, as the smell of Brasso or Silvo tends to linger in the machine.

Dishcloths and tea towels go in with towels on a hot wash. Things like dusters i just soak in a bowl of soapy water. Any other cleaning cloths depending on how dirty they are i just rinse through, if really grubby they get thrown.

All cleaning cloths (nearly all recycled from old towels, sheets etc.) with tea towels, mop heads, and kitchen towels go in a 95 degree wash. This is because I run a B&B; if it were just me I'd do them at 60 degrees. All look very murky as the colours run, but I know they are clean! I keep separate white glass cloths for carrying plate to guests, which are washed with my other whites at 40 - 60; I don't use them for cleaning.

Agree with you,too much rubbish in landfill already.
I wash them in really hot water (almost boiling ,we have solar power and sometimes it is nearly boiling )in a bowl and then into washing machine with towels and tea towels.
Really dirty things on floor etc would be wiped with kitchen paper towels and for normal floor, mop.

Everything goes in the 30 degree quick wash. Soap powders are made to work with tbis temperature. Can't be doing with making things complicated. I have loads of cleaning cloths.
I don't use paper towel unless one of the cats has been sick. I don't use disposable anything. I never use bleach....It rots the fabric.

at 60 degrees youre pretty safe. People have different ways but shouldnt impose on you unless you are being slatternly which I dont think you are

Crikey , your immune system must be like a new borns. ! Im sure at cotton 60 degrees everything is super clean

If you use silicone sponges, you can put them in the dishwasher of microwave them for 10 seconds and they never look dirty. I also use a washing-up brush and soak it in water with a dash of bleach from time to time. Always hand-wash dusters and cleaning cloths.

I use sponges but anti bacterial washing up liquid. I spray worktops with dettol. Every time I make tea I pour the boiling water over the sponge. Tea towels go in the whites wash with biological powder. The towels get washed after visitors, whichever towels they have used, even once.

I am a bit concerned at the amount of bleach being used. It is very very bad for the environment. A soak in boiling water is probably effective enough.
As for washing I put everything in the washing machine together and don't bother to separate whites and coloureds. I use a Dylon colour catcher cloth in every wash. This changes colour as it catches loose dye.

I have a dish cloth in a bleach solution between uses change it daily and throw them in the machine when ever I do a hot wash. Teatowels changed at least once a day and hot washed too. Dusters etc go in with jeans. My hand towels are changed daily and hot washed and visitors are encouraged to use paper towels. I never use sponges and use disposable cloths for spills on the floor. Interesting how we all differ in what we do though.

I never use disposable cloths/sponges as I am very eco aware, as we all ought to be ?
