In addition to adding a little chlorox, Rosette Gault in the paper clay =
workshop at NCECA suggested or also storing excess clay in thin sheets =
which dries out and gets rid of the mold. Easy to re-hydrate; the paper =
fibers suck in the water. Lesley

I don't use bleach at all in my household, I have been using alternative bleach made by ECOVER which is primarily peroxide and works just fine in killing bacteria. Use gloves though.

When I pulvarize my paper, and don't use it all, I press out excess water,
put it in plastic storage bags, and put it in the freezer. Keeps
indefinately. PGBrinkmann, in the city named for St. Anthony.
