Guest guest Posted February 22, 2004 Report Share Posted February 22, 2004 Whats the obsession with " indoor " vs outdoor mold. What does it matter if you inhale spores while you are enclosed by walls or not? The spore plumes I encounter outdoors feel no different to me than the ones I find inside. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 22, 2004 Report Share Posted February 22, 2004 So, while indoor and outdoor molds may be the same, we can control to some extent the levels of indoor molds, through proper design, construction, and maintenance of our homes, offices, schools, etc, and their HVAC systems. By doing so, we can minimize the sensitizations in others that have happened to us. I agree, though when you talk to most people about IAQ it is as if they believe that outside mold is mysteriously harmless which struck me as an odd way to look at it. The vast majority of people I talk to about mold are already sensitized and listen to " experts " who say that they cannot possibly be reactive in outdoor settings and remain ill as a result of not taking this into consideration. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
