A backscratcher and backscrubber apparatus having a removable and replaceable sponge member is disposed for use with water and the like. This device includes a molded handle member of plastic having a stem portion substantially impervious to water and/or soap used therewith, this handle having an enlarged head portion in which there is provided and formed a through aperture providing a retaining ring-like or rim portion which is integral with a handle portion. The formed aperture is adapted to receive and retain a sponge configurated and sized to be manipulated into a retaining position and condition within the aperture. A first guideway is formed in the rim portion, with this guideway a substantially circular bore whose axis passes substantially through the axis of the aperture and opposite the exit of the guideway is a chamber retaining bore in alignment therewith and providing a second guideway. A sponge-retaining pin of a length greater than the diameter of the through aperture in the head is provided, with this pin having a shank portion. This pin is inserted and passed through the inserted sponge for retaining the sponge within the retaining ring.
