I use a baking soda paste and then spray on vinegar and let it do it's magic.

I've also heard you can alternate a spray of vinegar and a spray of peroxide for a near 100% "kill rate" if that's what you're going for. :LOL Personally, I use both wood & plastic. I wash the wood with soap & hot water after & put the plastic in the dishwasher. I would use all wood, but only have a small wood one and then those cheapo plastic sheets for cutting. Not that it matters what I do, just thought I'd share. ![]() |
