Guest guest Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 --- Gail: I am sorry to hear that, this is my worse fear, that when I finally get a place the same thing will happen. In my experience, I could NOT get the mycotoxins out of my dryer, I tried everything. The washer on the other hand, I believe can be cleaned holding only water as it does. I used ammonia and baking soda. I am now in a hotel and I can use the washers but not the dryers as people come here in hurricane season and they are contaminated. My first wash and dry after they left, I ended up throwing all my clothers away and starting over. I hope someone here can help and if there is a way to de-contaminate a dryer I would love to know what it is. Take care D In , " regc80 " <regc80@...> wrote: > > I slept in my car last night.

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 : Does Vulpex work on neutralizing mycotoxins and does it have an odor? I have MCS as well.
