Re: Wooded Area: More Mold?

[Guest guest]

I live on hilltop and thought that would be LESS

moldy but alot of very large old trees and backs

up to heavy wooded area as I said. In fact city

I live in is referred to as 'city of trees', very

large old trees and yes we have ALOT of leaves

fall. I am going to do tests over again all at one

time so I can see differences are from house.

Plates I have done I did some here and there on

different days, different seasons in some cases and

different temperatures and humidity so I must do

them all at once to see what is house and what is

outside, etc. It would be great if it was mostly

outside because then I could shut all windows and

cracks and just get good hepa fitler for house

but I'm sure there will be mold in a couple areas.

I will try different brand of mold plates to see

if I get anything different also.

Like the docs say; " mold is everywhere " .

Heck, the citric acid in your Pepsi is from vats of Aspergillus Niger.

Doesn't faze me one bit.

I have no problems with mold out in the woods.

Where would we be without Saprovores and Saprophytes to decompose all

the dead stuff?

No, like I told Dr Marinkovich so many years ago; " I don't care

about all the other molds. They are less than a mosquito bite on my

ass compared to Stachy! " .

Of course, this was long before West Nile virus, so the expression

doesn't have quite the impact it used to.
