[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Never in plastic. Never in enclosed plastic. Never ever. And certainly, temperature matters!![/quote] +1 I’ve stored my off season clothes in plastic for many years without problems. However, last week I opened a plastic bin filled with cotton and linen shirts (about 15 shirts, the backbone of my summer wardrobe, collected over years, natural fibers only, no synthetic blends) was shocked by the powerful smell of mildew that emanated from it. So I’ve been spending time ever since soaking them, washing them with a special detergent to get rid of the smell, with varying degrees of success. Some are clearly beyond saving. I’ll never use plastic storage bins again. [/quote]
