Anybody know what the EPA's mold index is???

Yea. It's called " ERMI " . Environmental Relative Moldiness Index. There is

some good research going on, as I understand it, to correlate what this index

shows in buildings to markers that exposed humans have regarding

inflammation. As I understand it, ERMI has some shortcomings in determining

what all

people are being exposed to in WDB's. But, it also does help to offer some

good

info. Not really well versed on this subject, but I believe the above is the

correct gist of the matter.
