Just recently I had someone offer me free bottles. To which I promptly said "yes please." When they arrived there were 10 dozen 12 oz bottles. I immediately decided that I would have to start brewing a lot more beer. I had them inside sitting on the floor with the intent that I would wash them out right away and then find them a nice home until they could be filled.
One thing led to another and I didn't get them washed right away. I realized there was a problem when I started sneezing uncontrollably. I happen to be rather allergic to mold. When I checked the bottles I discovered that no one had rinsed them when they were emptied.
Today I spend most of the day soaking them in PBW, scrubbing labels off and running them through the bottle washer. All the while I was sneezing my head off. I have now seen every color of mold imaginable.
The moral I suppose is that you should always deal with bottles right away.
