Guest guest Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 Hi , We have a similar situation at the moment. We are living in rented whilst the insurance sort out our damp/leak damaged house - mould.... can't have helped Nic's yeast Could you tell me which company supplies chemical free carpets please. I wish we could just go live in a tent. Have just popped home to use the computer whilst kids at school - the builders have replaced the joists and some of the floorboards and sprayed them with antifungal/pesticide sh*t - the membrames in my eyes and nose are itchy and streaming. So that's not toxic eh? Stressed out beyond belief... and got to make choices about replacements...

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 Mrs of Foresight warned me that wool for carpets naturally contains arsenic - I think it's somehthing to do with the Australian soil. It might be worth checking this out before ordering carpets: if there was arsenic in the wool and it got peed on, arsenic gas might be released?

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 Also I was tole one of the problems with carpets (I think told me) was that they harbour bacteria and mould.
