Re: Help! MOLD!

Long story short -- I had to temporarily store my gear in an outdoor shed
for a couple of weeks.

Now I have some mold/fungus growth all over the containers, especially the
webbing.  They are slightly damp but not terribly so.

The canopies themselves look fine, although some of the fungus is on the
lines at the risers.

What's the best course of action?  I've got the containers sitting ouside in
the sun hoping they'll dry out a bit and hopefully kill some of the mold.

Riggers -- any suggestions?

Thanks so much for any helpful suggestions!

Get them out of the sun RIGHT NOW!. Wash them by hand and brush with woolite or some other mild cleaner and scrub until clear. Dry on well vemtilated shade.
