If there's dots on the edge of the paper should I throw the book away? They don't look dark like mold but reading the book does make my throat hurt after a while

Remember what the Bible says about such molds

This, I have found this on countless secondhand books but had no issues with them even after a decade. On the other hand, they were all very dusty so perhaps that is the cause of your throat hurt.

It's fine. Keep your shit dry. You can try a LIGHT spritz of white vinegar to neutralize some mold types.

foe, retard, but it's probably long dead since it's on dry paper.. unless you just dug that moist son of a bitch out of someone's basement

use 91% or greater alcohol, not vinegar, though vinegar is good for killing mold, just not great for books.
>>
>>23826111
and don't spritz it on the book, lightly moisten a paper towel or rag
>>
>>23825929
sand paper it if it's just superficial. just be gentle
