I don’t understand if mold remediation need to happen before during or after. Is that something the repair people do or is that a separate thing? I worry that once they knock it down mold spores will spread throughout my home.

Would really appreciate your advice. Thanks.

I bought a house back in July of this year that had mold in it. We knew before we got it and had it paid for and taken care of after closing. The house was gutted and cleaned by a restoration company and then passed air tests. Now, we are having our food mold really quickly (like bananas and peaches in a day). Do we need to worry about mold still being in the house? We are very paranoid about getting it back in the house 😂

My rental was found to have "significantly high" levels of aspergillus/penicillium and cladosporium in the air and on surfaces associated with the HVAC. I don't know how long there has been mold, the visible growth is recent about a month ago, but it was coming out of an air vent.

I've been having neurological issues with headaches, brain fog, fatigue, malaise, nausea, and depression for about two years. I just started having respiratory allergic symptoms as well.

My landlords requested I terminate my lease and move out before they fix the mold issues. How can I clean all my stuff to be sure I'm not going to continue breathing in the spores all over my stuff? How do I know what to get rid of? How do I know when to call in an expert? My new place does not have moisture issues so I am not too worried about spreading the infestation into the structure, but I have started to have allergic reactions with some items I've brought in like house plants which I had to put all outside. I have thrown out anything that had visible mold, I've been immediately washing all laundry I bring in and wiping down non-porous things with bleach wipes.

I'm a bit confused as looking online as it seems there are pockets of people going scorched earth (throw out everything) when they have had health effects from mold. I can't tell if that's well founded advice.

39 weeks pregnant and just found that the bottom of our fridge seal is caked in black mold. There's no mold anywhere else, literally just the bottom of the fridge seal. Could have been there for months, no idea. Not had any spillages or anything I can think of.

My worry is that the fridge is in a tiny room which has poor ventilation, and im scared that every time I've opened the fridge I've disturbed the mould and sent spores into the air and have been potentially inhaling harmful mold spores my entire pregnancy.

My partner is currently cleaning it now. Anyone have any insight on this? I've gone down the rabbit hole of researching mold and the cognitive and respiratory effects and im terrified I've done harm to my baby.

Is this anxiety or a reasonable fear?

My kids and I have been getting sick back to back along with my newborn, I suspect there’s mold in the house. Where do I start? Will they look anywhere in the house that could possibly have mold? Who do I call first ?

Hi all,

We recently had a free mold inspection conducted by a reputable company and they pointed out a tiny patch of what they said was white asperghillus on one rafter in our basement. They quoted us at 20,000 to remediate, saying we would need to tear up the ceiling and then have the entire home hepa-vacced

We will get other quotes as well, but I am just wondering if any one else has had a similar experience or whether I am wrong in being skeptical of the idea that a tiny, patch could necessitate these kinds of drastic measures
