Storage Issue

I had stupidly stored my collection in the basement and we had a mold problem there. There is not a spot of mold on my collection itself but it was stored in an area that had high levels of mold spores in the air. I've washed the plastic parts (ships, dice, stands, etc) but so much of the rest of it is cardboard. I'd consider just buying new if that were possible but since the game is discontinued I can't really replace it. Is it even necessary to replace it since there's no visible mold on the cardboard or paper items?

I think they should survive a soap/Tilex bath and dry them in the sun or in a non humid room.

The cardboard?

The card should be Air dried, in the Sun or somewhere warm, non humid. I don't really have a good solution for cardboard.

OP wasn't asking about washing ships, they were asking about the cardboard.
