I'm using 10x16", 100 micron socks and they go for about a week or more before they'll start overflowing.

I'll remove, give a good rinse with a hose then set aside in a pail until I have 3. Wash in the machine with 1/4 cup bleach. Been doing this close to 4 years with the same socks and they look about the same as when I got them.
