funky = mildew?
I use ozone for things like that. Home made ozone maker, in a cardboard box, with an aquarium pump and an airstone.
I can pump ozone into a trash bag for 24 hours, or I can pump ozone into a washing machine loaded with funky towels or clothes soaking in water.
Home made ozone maker = 12,000v neon sign transformer, 3 glass jars (nested), two cylinders of metal window screen inside one jar, with another jar between the screens, separated by one jar, with insulated wires soldered to the screen and connected to the transformer.
turn it on and it basicallly makes continuous lightning across the screen mesh.
if it arcs hot, you have to turn it off and move things around so the screens are equidistant and the wires don't arc. It will burn through the glass if left to arc!!
