No, dishes should be washed after you use them. Any food on them can attract animals (mice, ants). Any bacteria on them can cause you to get sick. If you are in an enviroment where there area already animals in the house, you probably will want to wash them before using too.

It all depends...are you alone where you don't have enough to bother with like 1 plate or bowl etc.....Me I have 4 people constantly making dirty dishes so yeah mine have to be done once a day....If we eat out or do take-out and only have a few little things they do not get washed right away.

Yes Dishes should be washed everyday after you are finished using them.

Definitly. That way you won't have stuck on food to deal with. I have 4 kids, so they have to be done a couple of times a day. The best time for me to do dishes is at night while the kids are crashed.

Well, that depends. Does washing them mean rinsing and loading the dishwasher? That should be done at least once a day. But I only run the dishwasher if it's full. Maybe 2x in a day maybe only every other day.

I live alone and use my dishwasher. I sometimes go three days before there is enough in there to justify running it. Just rinse well before putting dishes in there if you don't want to run it everyday.

I never leave dirty dishes around. They are allot easier to clean right away. Besides wouldn't you like to look at a tidy clean kitchen?
