I have to change them every couple of weeks, but that's a small price to pay. As far as getting rid of the mold, I use Clorox spray cleaner-not straight bleach, but a cleaner with some bleach, available in any supermarket or department store. It kills the mold and cleans up nicely. Just avoid spraying on fabric.
