Jacoby asked:
We found some mold in the house we are buying, and we were told by previous people that lived here that the house had a black mold problem. We were not notified about this when we agreed to purchase the house, and now its kinda bad. I have been sick off and on more than EVER in my life and I think this is the cause.

Colini asked:
I just moved out of my apartment, and after moving some furniture, discovered some black mold growing on the carpet (and into the wood of my furniture which we had to just toss)…Its not a huge area, how can I clean it? The carpet is mauve, and therefore, I don’t think bleach would be a good idea…
I can’t replace the carpet…Or rather, I am not willing to do that…

Is it still the landlords’s responsibilty if it was possibly caused by a spill that wasn’t properly cleaned? I imagine that is what happened, although I have no way of knowing for sure…But it was in the area around the base of the nightstand in the bedroom…maybe someone dumped a water or something…I imagine that I am responsible for that…?

I am interested in finding out if “black mold” is found in cigarette smoke. I know a heavy smoker who insists she is suddenly getting headaches due to having found black mold in her house.

Deidre C asked:
Our fireplace chimney is leaking and on the other side of the wall , which is in my daughters bedroom, there is black mold growing on the wall. The wall is painted but it is coming thru the paint. The same thing is happening on the ceiling as well. Im very afraid of this situation as i’ve heard so many horror stories of how black mold can kill a person. I have taken my daughter out of the room since i found this. I would have already tried to fix it but we rent this house and we have to inform our landlord about this. Can anyone help?

Black Mold Health Effects - What Kills Mold?

Markus Skupeika asked:
Black molds and mildews are known for bringing about various health problems in human beings. Though they are essential for earth’s ecosystem, they are not at all good for our health. Indoor black molds can result in serious health issues for men, women, kids and seniors. Individuals with compromised immune system suffer a lot when exposed to black molds.
Black Mold Health Effects:
Mold spores are released in air. Hyphal fragments become airborne when stirred by any of the external forces. These airborne particles are so small in size that human eyes cannot see them. When individuals inhale moldy air, these particles enter into the system and easily make their way to lungs and other respiratory organs.
Black mold health effects may turn up to be very serious. Initially it looks like common allergic reactions to cold or dust. But ignoring the early symptoms can be dangerous.
Some of the symptoms of mold and mildew allergy are stuffy and runny noses, watery eyes, difficulty breathing, skin rashes, headache, irritation of throats and nausea. There can be other reactions of mold exposure too, it is better to consult a physician to know the exact cause of allergies.
Troubles can begin suddenly. Individuals may feel congested as soon as they enter into a mold infected room, basement OR come into direct contact with any moldy piece of fabrics, curtains, leather jackets, carpets, wallpapers and other similar household materials.
Should such symptoms occur, become careful. Mold infection is accompanied by a musty odor. This odor is the clue; it helps individuals identify the exact location of contamination. Humid places and the locations that had water damage are preferred by molds and mildews to grow in. Mold removal is the only way to get rid of such sticky molds.
Here is a list of black mold health effects:
Redness, irritation of eyes and watery eyes are known as common symptoms of mold infection. But the problem is these symptoms are also observed in cold and flu. Itchiness and redness can spread around the eyes and result in swelling of eye areas. Coughing, wheezing and sneezing also fall under common mold allergies.
If you have had no history of cold or flu in recent past, and you are suffering form these symptoms, it can be a case of mold exposure. To be confirmed, walk into other parts of the house, get out in the garden and go in to open air. If the conditions continue to be the same, perhaps you have cold. Otherwise, the place wherein your suffering started has got molds.
Direct contact with toxic black mold and mildews often result in skin rashes. Itchiness, swelling and tenderness are the general signs of skin allergies due to mold. These are also similar like other types of allergic responses, hence, difficult to diagnose unless the victim is sure of handling any contaminated substance.
Some individuals are more responsive to the molds; however, almost everybody shows some of the above mentioned symptoms with different intensity when exposed to molds and mildews. People with asthma and compromised immune system experience really bad conditions in presence of toxic black molds and mildews.
What kills mold?
Mold cleaning and mold removal both are important when it comes to killing mold. Exhaust fan, air conditioning system and dehumidifier can help you clear airborne mold particles. To clean mold infected substances, you can use mold cleaning products which are natural. Mold cleaners made of organic substances are free from side effects and quite effective too.
While cleaning molds, one should be careful enough so that cleaning-time exposure does not result into severe black mold health issues.

dante s asked:
There is black mold seeping through the wall of my bedroom (its coming from the room where the air conditioning/water heater thing is)… there is obviously a leak, which has caused scary looking mold to come through the wall and into my bedroom… do i have to replace this dry wall or is the leasing office responsible for that? They are ignoring my complaints, is there a health agency or something I can notify in order to get this fixed? any suggestions? isnt it illegal for them to just not fix it?
