I'd wipe them with Clorox wipes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ahhh-1#post-2661039 Sat, 03 Dec 2016 19:54:39 +0000 Pinkberrry 2661039@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This happened to me this year with our fake tree box. I had my husband take it outside spray it with dilute bleach solution and then hose it off. The poo was old and dried out so the risk of communicable disease by contact was low to begin with, but for airborne disease like lepto/hanta I took the bleach precaution even though they're not common in my area. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ahhh-1#post-2661038 Sat, 03 Dec 2016 19:33:54 +0000 SweetCaroline 2661038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I definitely would not throw them away! Wash 'em up, put them on the tree and throw some dryer sheets in whatever box you store them in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ahhh-1#post-2661030 Sat, 03 Dec 2016 18:43:43 +0000 Mama Bird 2661030@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Unless they're fabric, I'm pretty sure you can wash them with dish soap. Just put them in a new box that closes tightly afterward... I'd toss fabric ornaments and garlands though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ahhh-1#post-2661003 Sat, 03 Dec 2016 15:52:07 +0000 catomd00 2661003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd just wash them and keep them personally. Put them high up on the tree so no little hands get on them. I don't think it's a big dea at all. I would be way more concerned about ensuring there were no mice Getting in to our home! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ahhh-1#post-2660991 Sat, 03 Dec 2016 15:05:37 +0000 BadgerMom 2660991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh. I'm sorry, that sucks! I've had this happen before too to a bunch of glass balls. I think we sprayed them with Lysol and through away the box. But I grew up in the country and mouse poop was a frequent occurance so I've kinda become immune to the extreme gross out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ahhh-1#post-2660990 Sat, 03 Dec 2016 15:02:52 +0000 mrs. eagle 2660990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and I decided to put up our tree today. We set up the tree and I started to take out ornaments from the box they were kept in. As I was looking around, I noticed mouse droppings at the bottom of the box. :crying: :bummed: I want to throw everything away, but my dd "first, second christmas" ornaments are in the box. Is there anyway I can save them? My dh shrugged it off and made it seem like it's not a big deal. </p> <p>Has this happened to you? What should I do? What would you do? </p>
