microfibre cloths (merged threads)

How do other people care for (launder ) their microfibre cloths? I don't want to use bleach as I don't keep it in the house for curious toddler and eco reasons. they get used for everything from washing up to cleaning up minging bubs to behind the loo (not the same cloth obviously!)
I've noticed my tesco value cloths I got a year ago are not as effective as they used to be from washing at 60 with the nappies. They are washed in soapnuts and line dryed. Do all cloths lose their effectiveness or was this cos I bought cheapo ones to start with? Are they supposed to "wear out"?
I'm wondering if I've been doing sonmething wrong. I've just invested in some nice new orange ones from poundstrecher and am keep to prolong their life if poss this time.
