Dishwasher advice
My wife recently washed some kids toys and it ended that we got some
sand in our dishwasher. You can hear it every time you pull out the trays and you can see it accumulated at the bottom. What is the best way to get rid of sand in the dishwasher and what damage can it do ? Tks. |

There was about 5 large toys in there, that was retrieved from a sand box outside. We flushed it out twice on rinse cycle and that's about it. When you pull the top or bottom tray out, you can hear the sand grinding on the wheels still, so there is still some in there. Darn ! |
