Boiling in dechlor water for 5 minutes will sterilize it. But prior to either microwaving or boiling it should be rinsed out first.
Majority of us do not use a sponge any longer due to the molds and bacteria they are known to harbor. There are other ways to keep the humidity up in a tank.
Ok thanks for your advice. I will keep this in mind. If it don't work out with the sponge I will get rid of it. Thanks again!
