Guest guest Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 If I recall correctly the whole thing started with washing new clothes from the store? Do you still have those clothes in the house? Could it be formaldehyde or the chemicals used for wrinkle free wear? I have read that the chemicals used for wrinkle free clothes never leave the fabric. Perhaps it is the clothes themselves you washed in the washer and if you remove them from the house? Or you have already done so? It couldn't be something else that just happened to happen simultaneously could it? ap ---From: Jsverdlove@... we got rid of washer/dryer the day it happened and fumes are still everywhere and on clothes do people react this much to the plastic residue of a 6 month old washer? chlorine? something in the water?? argh...thank you for support - it keeps me going Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 If it has been in there that long yes. There will be fumes everywhere and will get into your clothes, walls, anything porous. You can wipe walls down with vinegar and water, wipe do not soak, place baking soda in every room in containers. It will help abosrb the odors. Plastic smells bad. Hope this helps God Bless !! dragonflymcs Mayleen ________________________________ From: " Jsverdlove@...

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 If they say wrinkle free or permanent press always has the chemical in them. New clothes also have formaldehyde you have to wash repeatedly to remove.
