My mat has never been cleaned. Ever. It is starting to smell a little bit like feet. I guess that's what comes of six or so years of sweating.

Thoughts about how best to clean it? Do I need a special mat cleaner soap - to preserve stickiness or whatnot? Or do I just want one, because they smell better?

I have a cheap purple sticky-mat mat from Walmart.

I just want to add one caveat to this: do not leave Ecoyoga mats (or, I'm guessing, other natural latex-based mats) lying in direct sun for long periods. It makes them go peculiar.

*g* It just did that to me over on the Monday pride thread. Nice to know it's not just me!

I did not know this as I do not have a mat of that type. Thanks!
