Quick Cleanups with a Single Swedish Dishcloth

Quick answer

Use a single Swedish dishcloth for quick cleanups by wetting it slightly for spills, using it dry for dusting, and rinsing it between tasks. One cloth can replace up to 17 rolls of paper towels.

How to use a single Swedish dishcloth for quick cleanups

1. 1. Wet the cloth for liquid spills: Run the cloth under cold water and wring it out until damp. Blot or wipe the spill immediately. The cloth will absorb the liquid without leaving streaks. Do not use the cloth dry on sticky spills — it may smear instead of absorb.
2. 2. Use it dry for dusting or dry crumbs: For countertops with dry crumbs or dust, use the cloth completely dry. The fibers attract particles without needing moisture. If the cloth is still damp from a previous task, let it air-dry for a few minutes before using it for dry dusting.
3. 3. Rinse and reuse between tasks: After each cleanup, rinse the cloth under running water and squeeze it out. For greasy messes, add a drop of dish soap. The cloth dries quickly and is ready for the next use. Never leave a wet cloth bunched up — lay it flat or hang it to dry to prevent odors.
