Question SicPress Book Deod

Hi Everyone,

Has anyone used this?
SicPress.com

We have a bunch of smelly books and nowhere to sequester them.
This looks like it could be amazing.

If not, how do you deal with your smelly/mildewy/icky books?

Thanks!
Lindsey

I've never heard of this product, but if it truely does what it says that would be amazing!

For the time being, we keep our really nasty books/papers in a freezer to keep them from degrading any further.

I'd be interested to hear what others do in this situation as well!

Well, we have the deordorizer on order and a bunch of books to serve as text subjects so I will be sure to let you know what happens!

Kitty litter was also an option that was suggested to me from a very knowledgable source so I figure, this seems safer and more eco-friendly (and easier to justify the expense. I don't know if Accounting would be down with me ordering kitty litter for the archives...!)

Good luck! I can't wait to find out if it works or not!
