Rinse the sponge in hot soapy water and wash by hand to remove as much cheese particles as possible. Then, if you have a dishwasher, put the sponge in the dishwasher and wash the sponge along with your load of dishes. I think that would clean up the cheese particles. If not, I'd consider buying a new sponge and throwing out the old one.

You need to replace the sponge. It is recommended that you replace it at least once every 3 months because of the bacteria it gathers. I also microwave mine(WET) at least once a week to kill the germs. 8-)
Sponges are notorious for collecting and breeding bacteria, while a rough-textured cloth can simply be tossed in the wash and come out perfectly clean. But if you're going to use a sponge, try replacing them every week on a set day.
Step 1: Soak sponge in Boiling hot water for 5mins.
