The smell comes from biological growth on books that are stored in damp, dark, cool locations. Check for active or dormant mold. Remove the materials to a drier (but still cool) environment, and make sure that plenty of air is circulating around them. These conditions should render the biological growth dormant. If the mildewed materials are stored for an extended period under such conditions, the smell will eventually disappear of its own accord.

Installation is quick since each tile placed in position provides an immediate reference for the subsequent tile. But this is where the advantages end.

Homescape vinyl has a smooth, non-porous surface, which makes it difficult for mildew to grow. If conditions are humid enough, mildew can appear. If it does, it can be easily removed with water and/or a mild bleach solution.
