    liquid band-aid for mold?

    I have mold starting on one of my eggs, so I tried the liquid band-aid trick. Phew-ee! That stuff stinks! I let it dry for 5-10 minutes before putting the eggs back, and I'm still a bit worried about the fumes. I'll probably air out the eggs again tomorrow, because *I* sure wouldn't want to be sealed in a room with that smell.

    Should I be worried about the fumes? Anybody have any bad luck/good luck with this trick? And is there a preferred brand? I tried New Skin, but it has oil of cloves as an inactive ingredient, and random oils are usually bad news for adult snakes. So it might not be all that great for developing babies?

    The band aid brand of liquid band aid has been discontinued, and that's the only brand I trusted to use.
    What I've seen successfully used since that brand has been discontinued is Elmers brand glue. Just like the old school glue you used back when you were a kid. Use it for windows and moldy areas. Works great!

    Did you try any foot powder, I generally only hear about liquid band aid for cuts/tears.
