Question from Susan

Hello Debra, Do you have any suggestions to find a mold-resistant shower curtain that is not vinyl? And if it has to be vinyl perhaps a less toxic version?

Thank you, Susan

Debra’s Answer

I know all about this, having been through this problem myself with cotton shower curtains molding.

I’m told hemp shower curtains do not mold.

You can get shower curtains made from nontoxic EVA plastic at IKEA stores (not online) very cheap (I think it’s something like $3) or online at Vita Future

Nylon shower curtains are also nontoxic and don’t mold.

But what I did was just install glass shower doors, which cost less than $100 at Home Depot and Lowe’s. Much nicer than a curtain and mold-free.
