Do Just One Thing
Don't leave freshly washed dishes sitting overnight in a tightly closed dishwasher. The trapped heat and moisture can create a damp environment that encourages bacteria, mold and mildew, while also leaving dishes with musty odors and water spots. Instead, crack the dishwasher door open an inch or two before bed to let steam escape and allow dishes to dry completely. This is especially helpful if your dishwasher doesn't have a built-in drying or ventilation cycle.
