Does anyone have a tried and true method of getting musty smells out of cotton thread? I acquired quite a bit of thread from my mom which had been stored for quite some time in our garage. It's not a super strong smell and they look to be in great condition but there is enough of a smell that I am not sure I want to use them, particularly for items that will be gifts. Any help will be greatly appreciated

I'll store with a dryer sheet or in a box with over if those baking soda fridge box.
I'll put the fridge box at the bottom, then the thread/yarn around it. Close it up and it'll be good in a few days.
Before all that... I last it outside it somewhere out of the way and just air it out. Sometimes that's all it needs
