Guest guest Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 Jeff, we also noticed that our wool throw carpets hold A LOT of dust and dirt....taking them away hasn't improved the health problems but maybe over time taking away irritants or potential irritants will eventually have an impact in the right direction, and if not, well what have we lost?? sue > > > >Marigold, > >There are at east 2 possible problems with wool, both relating to the >hair structure of the fibers.

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Zephiran Chloride is more effective than bleach. But why kill the mold? Dead mold is just as bad as live mold exept for infections. And infections are rare. The vast majority of reactions to mold is not infection. Besides, dead mold tends to dry out and fragment. Instead of hundreds of spores there are now tens of thousands of fragments. Remove the mold and stop the moisture. On the other hand, Zephiran Chloride is great for wounds, cuts and scrapes. Because the BACTERIA needs to be killed to prevent infections. But hydrogen peroxide is cheaper. Carl Grimes Healthy Habitats LLC ----- I heard the same thing about bleach...

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Not for internal use that I'm aware. Its to put on cuts to keep them from getting infected by bacteria (only mold in extremely rare cases). Carl Grimes Healthy Habitats LLC ----- I wanted to set the record straight in case there was ever something non-porous or soakable that got moldy like clothes or some possession maybe. You say it's for infections. Do you mean that it is something also used for internal use? > > Zephiran Chloride is more effective than bleach. But why kill the > mold?
