That area under the kitchen sink is super useful for storing all sorts of household items such as cleaning products, sponges, or towels. But keep in mind that your kitchen sink can easily leak, so here are some items that you shouldn’t store under the sink.
Pet Food
Things can easily get wet and moldy if the kitchen sink happens to leak, and that’s why keeping pet food or treats there is not a very good idea. Pet food should be kept in airtight containers, in dry and dark places, so it’s best to keep it far from a kitchen sink.
Electronics
Most people lack storage space in the kitchen, especially for bulky kitchen appliances such as air fryers or blenders. Avoid storing these electronic devices under the kitchen sink, because they can easily get damaged there.
Harsh Chemicals
Storing dish soap under the sink is fine, but any harsh chemicals such as bleach are pretty dangerous for pets and kids, and should be kept out of their reach.
Tools
Even though it’s convenient to keep your toolbox on hand, storing your tools under the kitchen sink might also be risky. Tools can easily get rusty when stored in dry or humid places so it’s best to keep them someplace dry.
