I used raw apple cidar vinegar to clean off mildew on bedroom walls

Now I'm thinking it was a bad idea, because the room now smells like dirty socks. Even with ventilation the smells still lingers for a day now. I didn't realize I was supposed to use the white vinegar. What should I do now?

I'd try the white vinegar mixed with tea tree oil, then if it didn't work, I might break out the bleach.

fwiw, I use non-raw acv all the time, never white vinegar, with no ill effects.
