sheryl Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 My dd threw up on her bedsheet a week ago. My dh did a quick clean and hosed it off outside. He put it in a bag....I told him not to do this b/c I might forget. Well, sure enough I forgot and now there is mildew/mold spores on the sheet. It's been 8 days since she soiled her sheet and it was in a bag. Is there a way to remove this problem?? HELP! Sheryl <>< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkpan Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Sorry, I would toss it. Not worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mom2absh Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 It's growing things now :blink:. I'd throw it out... J (Who has also forgotten similarly-soiled items stored in a similar way - eeww!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In The Great White North Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Definitely toss it. Without opening the bag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmoira Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Without opening the bag.Words of incomparable wisdom. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tap Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Definitely toss it. Without opening the bag. I could not agree more. Although, I figure you already did to know the condition. Tossssss it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie4b Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Is there a way to remove this problem?? Throw it away. If you really want to, you could bleach it, but since it's already in the bag... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie in CA Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 :iagree: TOSS IT! Sheets are pretty cheap...I don't think you could pay me enough to open that bag...:ack2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueenCat Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Toss it.... I doubt you could ever get all the mold spores out. The cost of washing it many times in HOT water is likely the cost of a new cheap sheet, and less time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaT Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 I would toss it. I had a similar thing happen when my dh took one of my sons, who was 12 at the time, to Asia with him. He threw up on his jeans after the flight on the ride to the hotel. They put them in a bag and brought them home 14 days later! EEWWWW. I never opened the bag.

ChemMommy Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 I don't care if money is tight. A cheap sheet set or a replacement fitted sheet from Goodwill is cheaper than the soap/hot water/odor issues! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangermom Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Yeah, that sheet is not worth keeping. Tell your husband to go buy a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justamouse Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 I would pick it up and toss it in the garbage. If I HAD to keep it because she only had one sheet and I couldn't afford anything else, I would buy bleach, fill the bag with water and bleach and pinch mu nose while I washed it, then stick it on the sanitary cycle in the wash machine.

sheryl Posted May 29, 2010 Author Share Posted May 29, 2010 Alrighty then...well, I have it....what say ye? A resounding "toss it in the garbage". Thanks. Sheryl <>< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
