For some years I have been using a very nice mouse mat, in fact a miniature 
persian rug from www.MouseRug.com
Once in the past, when it had become unspeakably grimy and grotty y I washed it 
but there had been no mouse problems.  Recently my mouse (Apple Magic Mouse, 
iMac) started to behave very erratically, principally tracking very slowly so 
that the rug no longer encompassed the screen by miles and it became sticky and 
juddery.  My thought at first was a mouse problem but on switching from the rug 
to the wooden desktop all was back to normal speed.  A good thorough wash of 
the mat in detergent and warm water and  a brush to settle the short pile seems 
to have more or less but not completely restored the former state.  The mat 
appears unmarked and in visibly as new surface condition despite a number of 
years of daily use.  Has anyone out there used these delightful little mats and 
had a similar experience?  
I am very loath to junk and replace it but see no alternative.  After years of 
use this seems to have been a sudden happening.
