Question from Julie
Hi Debra,
We live on the ocean and are trying to buy a bed that is organic but that can also handle humidity. Rubber and wool seem to need a very dry environment. Any ideas?
Debra’s Answer
I’m going to let my readers answer this one. I live in Florida, where it is very humid, and have a wool bed, but we have the air conditioning on when it’s humid because it’s also hot, and the air conditioning removes the humidity from the indoor air.
I used to live right near the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. It was very humid and I had a real problem controlling mold. It would grow on my cotton espadrilles and cotton-covered binders. So I know your humidity problem near the ocean is different that mine here in Florida.
