Mold removal recommendations for new member.

[Guest guest]

Hi Blake.

As you can see from Greg Weathermans post (You don't need

a " Weatherman " to see which way the MVOC's blow), people who do their

own remediation are often their own worst enemy.

I know we sound like a buncha hysterical crazies here, that's why I

call myself " The StacHysterian " .

But believe you me - we've been there and done it!

First of all, immune compromised people should NEVER undertake ANY

mold remediation at all. Ask about this.

Second, full containment and HazMat procedures must be used or the

environment can be rendered unsuitable for habitation for a

sensitized individual.

Third, even if the remediation is successful, your possessions may be

already so contaminated that they can be a driving force in continued

illness.

The best way to determine this is to flee. Take a vacation for a

week. Don't take anything with you. See how you feel.

Then, if you improve, try sleeping in close proximity to something

that you brought out of the house.

If you relapse, then you know.

No matter what any doctor tries to tell you.

Dear list,

I have just joined. I have a number of post-virally induced health

problems (fatigue, sleep problems, reduced memory, etc) and have also

had inhalant allergies (dust mites, cat hair, etc) all my life. Since

moving into a new house 4 months ago I have been feeling much worse

despite being in a much less polluted area. I suspect indoor pollution

is a significant factor here. My bathroom is covered in mold. Can

someone please tell me what I need to do to remove this mold?
