7 Days After the Flood: The Mattress Felt Dry, But Mold Was Already Growing Inside

7 Days After the Flood: House "Dry" but the Child Coughed

Sunisa's family in Nonthaburi survived 60cm flooding in their bedroom. After the water receded, the mattress sat in the sun for 5 days—seemed "dry"—and they used it again.

Within a week her daughter started coughing, nose congested, breathless at night. The doctor's verdict: mold spore allergy.

Dry Outside ≠ Dry Inside

Modern mattresses have foam, sponge, synthetic fiber—soaking water 8–10 cm deep. Sun-dried mattresses look dry, but internal humidity stays at 30–40%—an ideal mold breeding ground within 48 hours.
