If you managed to get really bad black furry mould off baby clothes would you use them?

[pookey]

Left pooey velour mamas and papas baby gro in a lidded bucket with intention of treating it prior to wash. forgot it now covered in hideous black mould. assuming i get it clean mould may remain unseesn so should i just bin it or use it? money is an issue and its only been worn once but is it worth risk?

No bin anything with mould on it.

Washing at 90 should kill off the mould, but you may find that you can't get rid of the black spots.

Eeek 1-1 dp is of the chuck it opinion but it feels so wasteful and it was a gift. I am torn. App milton is very good at getting rid of mould as are vinegar and oxi stain removers but it would be a waste of money if after all that a stains remain.

I have never managed to get rid of mould, but if I did, I would undoubtedly use the baby gro again. But then, I'm a slob

Bin bin bin. Some types of black mould are really dangerous, unless you're a biochemist or something and can reliably identify the mould I wouldn't chance it.

no

Wash it to get it clean and dye it? I'd use it as long as it was clean. Skint here too...

Think I am leaning towards bin it, i put the items on a pile of other baby laundry and some mould transferred onto two other items I washed it off under the tap and think it went but because its currently washing at 40 I am paranoid undead spores are multiplying in my washing machine as we speak.

Think I will iron the clean spore infected items...dont want to shrink and ruin everything?

Use washing soda on it. I find it gets rid of lots of undesirable things. And it's cheap! just put a scoop into your washing machine drawer when you put your detergent in.

Thanks solo I actually did put a small bit in and had forgotten that duh! so feel a bit reassured I wont need to boil everything. Think I am clearly too paranoid to risk the babygro it was originally growing on though :(

Mackrel I am cheered up by image of me identifying mould with goggles and a microscope!

Bin

I would wash it and see how it comes out.

No. Even if it came up clean.

Seems wasteful but tbh baby clothes are available so cheaply that they can be replaced with basic stuff.

No, I would put it straight in the bin.
