Always remove food particles that are lodged in bristles by holding the brush under running water until all particles are gone, allow to dry.

When a dish brush head has come to the end of its life, you can simply put it in the compost, garden waste or food waste bins that councils collect.

The handle of the dish brush should last decades. When it is no longer working well or is heavily damaged. You can simply put the whole handle in the metal recycling bin.
