I have some clothes i just washed and the dryer is not ready for another 2 hours, should i be worried about mildew??

How many hours/days would it take before the mildew would come?

It depends on how hot it is. Clothes will usually start to smell before they actually mildew. If they smell clean then you should be fine.

Not if it the washer is in a cold area - I've left mine in a 55 degree laundry room for 24 hours and they were ok - on the other hand, in the summer if it were 90 degrees, I wouldn't leave them for over 6 hours. 2 Hours is not a problem.

Your clothes should be fine for the two hours. But you might have a problem by tomorrow or even the next day.

lol......gee do you live in the same apartment building as me.......this always happens, everytime I wash clothes. You dont need to worry though It takes a few days for mold to grow on them. Hang them outside if it's warm where you live.
