Natasha Does anyone have an tips to stop mold from accumulating on clothing? Due to the humidity all my clothing & handbags stored in a teak dresser are starting to get a lot of mold. I don't use air conditioning and there is decent air circulation in the bedroom and I keep the dresser slightly open, but the mold continues!
BKT We use Kapur Barus, you can buy them from Hardys or Carrefour, they smell bad but they do the job

hermit Do as people used to do for ages:every month take everything out and put it in the sun. Besides that,well ventilated dressers like the kind that have bambu lattice panels also help.
BKT The brand name is Swallow, they look like this http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bFXHoqIswQs/TE5kgZRxhcI/AAAAAAAAAqo/yCr2b19cV6c/s1600/kapur+barus.jpg I'm not sure what section they're in, just ask for Kapur Barus and someone should be able to help you out.
hermit [b]Swallow[/b] They are in the section with air-fresheners,mothballs and so on. Maybe they are mothballs after all,by the look of it.
