Many furniture is now made of fiberboard. If moisture penetrates into it, the formaldehyde and other additives have not been completely volatilized in the first two years, and it will not be moldy. However, once the additives are volatilized, the damp cloth moisture will cause the furniture to mold. If you are a resident living on a lower floor, if you encounter continuous rainy weather, then your home furniture may be moldy due to the high humidity. We would also like to remind you warmly that even if the surface of some furniture is coated with piano paint, it can be properly scrubbed with clean water. Do not leave the wet rag on the surface of the furniture for a long time to prevent moisture from penetrating into the wood.
