My a/c was leaking and got my carpet wet. I want to make sure if it has some mold that i can treat it so it it wont make anyone sick.
Steam cleaning is your only answer. You can rent one and have fun doing the whole house or you can have a professional come in and charge you.
White distiller vinegar will kill mold and the mold and vinegar smell will both be gone when it's dry!
Carpet usually can't sustain mold or fugus. It has to be somethin in or on the carpet for that to happen. Depending on how wet it got, you might have to pull the carpet back cut the pad out if it got soaked. The pad will act as a sponge keep everything wet thats where you'll run into problems. Take the peice to Home Depot to match it up replace it. Have the carpets professionaly cleaned
