Question from laa

HI again, everyone – please Debra, could you advise:

Many, many thanks. Your help is a godsend to many of us, Debra!

Debra’s Answer

Readers, please share your experience regarding mold on organic cotton mattresses, if any. I have only had one organic cotton futon, which I had only a few years, but it was in an apartment in the foggiest part of San Francisco where visible mold was growing on everything and there was no mold on the organic cotton futon.

As you may already know, I sleep on an organic wool mattress with no innersprings, which I got from Shpeherd’s Dream. I’ve had it for years, and no mold.

Again, readers, please tell of your experience with the smell of organic cotton. I don’t think it has a strong odor myself.
