Anyone who makes their own MMS can easily make those as well by mixing
the sodium chlorite and citric acid powders and placing them into a
permeable bag.

Hello Mike,
If you search on the company Odor Science you should find some packets that
are good for a 30 day time release of ClO2. They are activated by humidity
in the room. I believe it takes about 40% to get them working, but I am not
sure what the exact number is.
A creative use involves the shower area. When you take a shower, the
humidity in the bathroom goes up. This rise in humidity activates the
packet and any opportunistic mold and mildew is greated with ClO2 gas that
quickly kills it. Once the shower is over and the humidity is removed from
the room, the packet shuts off.

Pat,
Thanks very much for mentioning this. Another member also mentioned
chlorine dioxide in a private email, but my impression this was only
used in large-scale industrial applications where the appropriate
safeguards were employed.
Your mention of the word "packets" did the trick. You got my
attention, and I started googling to see if this has any effect on
spores.
One of the first hits was a paper titled "Removing Mold from Books
and Papers", at
<http://howtodothingsright.com/blog/2009/09/removing-mold-from-books-and-pap
ers/>
Sure enough, it solved the problem.
This is interesting. I'll see if I can find some packets and try
them. Thanks to you and my private emailer, you may have come up
with an easy solution that I can implement right away.
Thanks!
Mike M.
