Guest guest Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 well i should say my doctor found stachy in my blood Thats what allerted us to get my land lord to do something about their slap shot work. pretty on the outside but horror show underneath. anyway we moved and threw most everything away as advised. i kept my computer. (i should say my son did) cost a forturne i made it myself). so everything was new in my room but the computer - and i was still getting sick. i said to get rid of the computer - i didnt care anymore. before we did we took a petrie dish sample of the mold with the computer running for a few seconds and the petrie dish left open. withen a few ours mold was growing. with in 24 hours we had a colony. we sent it to get analized by the same people who provide the dish. you know, you can buy them in lowes or home depot. anyway it came back. no problem! have a nice day type of thing. now i am not crazy. i have no real allergies to mold - just this sensitivity or whatever it is we have that makes us different than the rest of the world. but that computer to me was bad. i gave it to a friend who had the energy to clean it with the alcohol and leave it in the sun. i was there the other day and my nose still started to run when i was by that darn the computer. here is what they found. of course in colonies Alternaria 1 botylis 1 cladosporiuim 6 non sporoulating fungi 1 any thoughts on this? rosanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 My doctor tells me to strive for 5 or less if you have trouble with mold sensitivity or illness so your count is close to good for sensitive people. You could work on cleaning up a little more but clad is ubiquitous, very common mold outdoors and non toxic to my knowledge. How long to you leave dish exposed?
