Summarize:

If you don't have a dishwasher, it can be easy to let dishes go for a day or two (or longer). Letting dishes sit around, whether in the sink or in the dishwasher, can spread harmful bacteria at a rapid rate. If you can't get to them immediately, let them soak to ease the process when you get to them, but try to limit it to an overnight soak. This will ensure that any gunk immediately in the drain will wash away before it solidifies, making it harder to remove later. Alternate between using very hot tap water and boiling water. This will also prevent odors from forming.
Clean your dishes regularly. Pour hot water down the sink after washing dishes.
Sammanfattning: Om du inte har en diskmaskin kan det vara lätt att låta disken gå en dag eller två (eller längre). Att låta disken sitta, antingen i diskhon eller i diskmaskinen, kan sprida skadliga bakterier i snabb takt. Om du inte kan nå dem omedelbart, låt dem blöta för att underlätta processen när du kommer till dem, men försök att begränsa det till en natt blöt. Detta kommer att se till att varje gunk omedelbart i avloppet kommer att tvätta bort innan det stelnar, vilket gör det svårare att ta bort senare. Växla mellan mycket varmt kranvatten och kokande vatten. Detta kommer också att förhindra lukt från att bildas.
