Yes, dishwashers are effective at killing E. coli bacteria. The combination of high water temperature, detergent, and the mechanical action of washing in a dishwasher can effectively remove and kill bacteria, including E. coli. However, it’s important to ensure that the dishwasher is set to a hot water temperature recommended for sanitizing dishes, and that dishes are properly loaded to allow for thorough cleaning and disinfection. Additionally, using a dishwasher detergent with antimicrobial properties can further enhance its effectiveness against E. coli and other bacteria.
