Mold - Cherryville,MO

The only part of the mold you can see with the naked eye is the fruiting portion of it (like seeing tomatoes on the vine, apples on a tree). The hyphae are actually like the roots of a tree and may go much deeper into the fabric and are completely invisible to the naked eye (which is why yous should always throw away moldy bread instead of eating around it)

From a safety standpoint, I'd say take them to the dry cleaner so they can use the appropriate chemicals on them. It may be expensive, but it's better than possible pulmonary issues if it's not properly resolved.

You could always try something like Dryell, but I'm not sure it would adequately resolve the issue. You could also contact the manufacturer (if you know where you purchased them and who the actual manufacturer is) and see if they have any recommendations.

I would look around for a dry cleaner that offers coupons and spend the money to have them dry cleaned. It sounds like it was an expensive investment and might be cheaper in the long run to just have them professionally cleaned. I was always told "dry clean" means you can wash something - "dry clean only" means you can't. If you had a steamer (like a Shark with the furniture attachment) you could try that and it probably wouldn't hurt anything. The good news is that it sounds like you fixed the moisture problem that caused the mold in the first place so you hopefully won't have to deal with this in the future :)

Good Luck!

Try wiping them down with concentrated sol-u-mel on a washcloth. It should wipe the mold off easily.

If I were to wash I would use woolite on gentle cycle or delicate an then let them air dry rehang to dry would even work as long as they are not dripping.. Would not even attempt the dryer not even on air.

I would go ahead and get them professionally cleaned this time. Then whenever you get moisture on them after that, spray with a vinegar or hydrogen peroxide solution to keep the mold from starting up again. The best way to fix mold is to have it done right then keep up with it.
