Think about it -- no bacteria can build up a resistance to being physically washed off a surface and down the sink! As long as the water bowl/dish is made from a nonporous material, soap and warm water followed by a good rinse is sufficient.
One thing to consider. When you have hundreds of water bowls to scrub and rinse every week it is time consuming to clean each individual bowl with just a little soap and elbow grease. I soak hundreds of bowls in bleach and amonia buckets every week because it is less time consuming. Soap and water will not do the job.
Since moving from the southwest to the southeastern part of the U.S. my water bowls develop a dark slimy film which cannot be removed by soaking in soap and water alone. Everything grows and decomposes faster here.
