Prevent Mildew In Warm Weather
Molds thrive in warm muggy conditions and cause mildew in homes. Textile experts from Town State College advise drying air in closets with a small electric light, opening doors, ventilating linen spaces, and using an electric fan where outdoor air is scarce. Calcium chloride absorbs moisture in small rooms, and airing the house on cool nights helps. For musty basement odors, spread chloride of lime, then sweep, scrub and dry the floor. Damp clothes should be managed promptly.
