my garage has white, green and black mold. waiting on test results of exactly what kind of mold? I had a clothes rack in there and dont know if the clothes are contaminated?? They have no direct mold on them but i am worried about air born spores?? I have low immunity and cant take any chances. Could they be contaminated even if they have no obvious mold spots??How can i launder them to kill any mold. I heard washing in borax twice and drying well is the best. I am ill and thats a lot of work when i dont even know IF they are contaminated?How can i clean clothing from a moldy garage? they dont have mold on them but what about air spores? wash all?
Hottest water the clothes can handle bleach for the whites and color safe bleach for your colors. Also if they give you an ok to in and clean where a ventilation mask clean with hot water and bleach, and I would paint over with Killz it kills any mold you missed cleaning and prevents it from coming back.How can i clean clothing from a moldy garage? they dont have mold on them but what about air spores? wash all?
You'll want to wash them in the hottest water the material will allow. Add bleach to the whites, and white vinegar to the colored clothes. The bleach and/or vinegar will kill the mold spores, as will the heat of the dryer. If you want to store them in the garage again, put them in plastic containers that have a tight fitting lid.
