Should I try to clean the green mold off my baby’s crib?
Baby Bedding 4 Comments »Florida girl at heart asked:
Our garage recently flooded. My daughter’s crib was being stored there. Although we raised the crib out of the water’s way, it still ended up getting a light dusting of green mold (as did all my baby gear). The crib is a finished cherry wood and is about 6 years old. My husband and I are wondering if we can remove the mold with bleach solution (baby #2 is on the way), or should we throw it out? Any thoughts or suggestions regarding treatment would be appreciated!
My husband and I looked at the crib, and decided to pitch it. Maybe if it was our bed, we’d give it a go, but bcs it’s the baby’s and more spores could be hiding in cervices after it’s cleaned, we decided to play it safe. Thanks for all of your input!!!
