How do you remove a musty odor from books?

I have some old children's books that have been stored in an attic. Although there is no visible mold or mildew there is a strong musty odor. What is the best way to get rid of the smell?

How do you remove a musty odor from books?
De-Stinkify Your Book


Despite your best efforts, your book smells musty or mildewed, or just old. There's an easy solution... You will need two plastic containers--one that will fit inside the other one. Pour some kitty litter in the bottom of the larger container. Place your book into the smaller container (without the lid), then put the small plastic container into the larger container. Place the lid on the larger plastic container. You can leave the book in this book de-stinkifier for a month--to remove the odor (and any moisture) from the book.








Tips:


You can also use baking soda or charcoal in your book de-stinkifier.=)
Reply:Spray them with Lysol and lay them in the sun. Must in paper is a tough one. Really impossible. That's the best you can do. You will never get it all out.
