Similarly, avoid luxuriously long showers. Try to limit shower time to 10 to 15 minutes maximum to prevent wasting excess gallons of water.
Using dishwasher more than hand washing dishes actually save water. If possible, find a quick run cycle on your dishwasher instead of running the default which is usually pretty long.
