Storage - mould

2014-09-15 by Richard Smallfield

Hi,

I have been storing some prints in boxes in my spare room, which has a dehumidifier running, so the air is very dry. Nevertheless, some have started to be damaged with mould. This surprises me, as I didn't think that mould could grow in such an environment. I wonder if there were already spores in the box when it was put in there, as it's quite an old box.

Has anyone got any experience or knowledge they can share?

Thanks,
Richard
