I've been eyeing crocheted dish scrubbies made from hemp on etsy to get away from plastic sponges, maybe you may be interested in them as well. hemp is tough, extremely mold/mildew resistant and gets softer as its washed.

I am experimenting with a piece of paper towel inside an abrasive plastic mesh (the kind garlic and onions come bagged in). The paper holds the soap and provides a nice padding for the scrubbing mesh - and I can get rid of it when done. Plastic seems to last forever, scrubs better than abrasive stuff on sponge, and is easy to rinse. Works so much better!
Kitchen Sponges - what's up? I always wash dishes with a sponge, and they used to last more than a couple of days. Now I am tossing sponges every other day because they positively stink like a moldy bacteria-hive dipped into a vat of tar.
