I don't think a UV-C bulb is the best way to go - those things can be
bloody dangerous for anyone looking at them without the proper goggles -
but we do happen to have one in CCL.
I would recommend getting a good mask rated for mold spores - an N95/KN95
should do - and liberally spraying down the interior with bleach.
I support paying Lovi if that is what it takes to get it done, and I'd be
happy to pitch in for an hour or two.

I texted with Lovi the other day, who is still a
pending member of Sudo,
and Lovi mentioned they would be willing to deep-clean Sudo's
deeply-spoiled fridge, if paid $25/hr cash and supplied with the
various means to do so.
To my knowledge, no Sudoer has voluntarily pursued cleaning this fridge
for the last four months or so after the request went out. It was also
insisted that the fridge be kept and not dumped (Patrik thought it was
unsalvageable due to the near-certainty of mold growing in inaccessible
places.) The fridge incubated a large quantiy spoiling food, unplugged, for
an unknown number of months during the pandemic.
Anyway - as Lovi is not yet a Sudo member, as a Sudo member I would like
to propose that Sudo take Lovi up on their offer, and supply:
- an electrostatic air purifier, and a UV-C light bulb to help passively
de-mold in the first pass in all compartments. The total cost for both is
expected to be <$80.
- bleach, cleaning agents, sponges, paper towels, etc in the second pass.
Expected cost is <$20 in the event Omni's cleaning closet lacks these
items.
In terms of active labor I believe at least four hours should be budgeted
at a minimum, = $100.
Expected cost: $180.
Contingency: $20.
Total: $200.
In return - if Lovi still has capacity and inclination to engage with this
task - I would propose that Lovi provide a do-by date to complete the work,
for the benefit of all sudoers who wish to once more preserve edible food
in a sanitary fashion.
If anyone objects to this proposal, lmk..?
Best,
David
