IF your dishwasher is working properly then you ought to be able to put your poop knife, dinner dishes AND toilet brushes in and everything comes out sanitary.
Don’t ask why there is peanut butter left on the knife. You’ll be ok.
See, this makes sense to me. It’s the same way with anything IMO. If it involves bodily fluids, beyond native saliva and tears, you probably want to wash it specifically. At least in its own load, possibly in a different machine entirely, maybe even get it professionally handled, or clean it with fire. Depending on the severity of the soiling…
I have no issue with someone using a thing that was designed for another purpose to do something that it’s designers didn’t think of. As long as you’re not cross contaminating your food with it, I couldn’t really care less… But bluntly, using your dishwasher, the same one you use for dishes, to clean your poop scrubber? Big nope from me.
I worked at a restaurant in the kitchen. We had a place on the wall to hang brushes. The GREEN brushes were to be used for food/prep areas only. The white brushes were for cleaning toilets, and other filthy places.
The white brushes were soaked in buckets and rinsed/washed thoroughly in a slop sink, then later, put in the racks that push through the dishwasher conveyor belt that ran through the machine if I recall correctly. It’s been more than 20 years
I once asked my nephew about this - he worked in a hotel back then. Yes, indeed, they clean toilet brushes in a dishwasher.
But it is a separate one that is only for toilet brushes and brush holders, nothing else.
I would completely agree with this and do it like this. Why? Saves time to say the least.
But, using the same one as for dishes? No way. Separate one, marked and all that? Makes perfect sense 👍.

Did you have a black hook for the poop knives, also?
We used our hands
