I had a friend stay in my apartment for one month and I returned to a filthy kitchen sink, encompassing dirty dishes and flatware. By dirty, I mean covered in food residue. And by the smell I'm sure that bacteria is present.
I need to get the situation under control ASAP. What is the best method. Should I remove the dirty dishes and flatware from the sink, disinfect the sink, then return the dirty dishes to it in order to clean? Or clean the dishes in the sink itself. I do not own a dish washer.
Also, what is the best method to clean both the sink and dishes. I presume that I should use bleach, on the sink, but should I also use them on the dishes? Any and all help is appreciated and as soon as possible. I can't focus on unpacking until I deal with this. Thank you.
