Would raw vinegar damage the pieces? I'm thinking it would be more effective.

I recently bought a package of Lego-related board games and comics alongside some Lego pieces. Upon opening the package, I didn't really check the pieces (which were in small plastic bags) and ended up mixing them with my other pieces, but later realized that the board games and comics had an intense smell of mold on them (plus some small visible yellow spots). I ended up sending the games and comics back to the seller for a refund, but kept the pieces. However, I later noticed that some of the pieces smelled pretty bad as well, though there's no visible mold or dirt on any of them. I proceeded to wash the pieces that were in the mold package - some ended up smelling alright, others kept smelling bad (I even threw a piece out cause the smell could not be removed). I even washed some of the pieces that had been in contact with the foul-smelling pieces, but I can't be certain I covered them all. My concern right now is whether it's possible that I might have "spread" any potential mold to my other Lego pieces by mixing them together at the start. Even though most of the pieces smell fine now, or only have a faint musty smell, I'm concerned about mold spores being all over my pieces at this point. Does anyone have any experience with this type of thing, or knowledge of how mold may affect Lego pieces (or worse, instruction manuals - I sometimes keep the pieces and instruction manuals close together)? Is there anything I should do at this point? When can I consider a piece "safe"? Thanks for your advice!
