Guest guest Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 Twice in the last month my bf and I have been in very moldy environs (I could smell it). The first was at a Bed and Breakfast inn that had such a serious mold problem I was coughing and itching and we left at 2am. We slept in the car that night and did not wash our clothing and luggage (cotton and nylon duffel and carry bags)until the following day. No car washes had steamers and I have MCS so we didn't clean the car. I didn't notice any obvious problem but isn't it likely the spores (which we both smelled on some of our clothes the next day, indicating how serious the mold problem had been) would have gotten into the car? After being at my friend's moldy health clinic we showered and washed our clothes. Today he had the car hand steamed as there's a good hand detailing place here. We also bought a $35 garment steamer to use on trips to spot clean the car. Am I worrying too much about this type of thing? We were at the B & B for six hours and at my friend's clinic for three so that was why I was concerned. It is unusual I'd have to spend that much time in moldy places. What do others do? It's a hassle to continually steam the car and with MCS you can sometimes bring out settled odors and create a new problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
