Replace plastic scrubbers with these plant-based brushes. With ergonomic bamboo handles and sisal/palm fiber bristles, they hang on a twine lanyard in between uses, allowing bristles to drain. (Unscrew the bristles from the base periodically to let them dry out, and clean with vinegar. Never leave submerged in water.) In 6 - 12 months when it's time to replace the bristles, keep the handle and just get a new bristle head! Use the Multipurpose bristles for dishes, vegetables, or household cleaning. Try the Pots & Pans bristles for heavier duty cleaning: scrubbing out stains, stuck on food, removing labels from jars, tub and shower build-up, etc. (This product is vegan-friendly.)
