Question from Nannette Wilcox
I live in the Gulf Coast area and use the Damp Rid product in all of my closets in my home. Is it safe and if not is there a natural mold inhibitor that I can put out in the containers to replace that product? Thanks
Debra’s Answer
Damp Rid is perfectly fine. It’s just silica gel and clay. They have many products. You can look up their ingredients and MSDSs at www.damprid.com.
Did you start getting an unusual pain in your left hip near the bone after hanging damp rid in your closet? I pray God protects that 3 year old child and that he was not harmed.
Is this harmful if a 3 year old drank this?
You can get answers to questions like this from the Safety Data Sheet (SDS). The SDS for Damp Rid says that ingestion can cause nausea. This is not a big toxic response, but I would keep it out of reach of children.
