I need to find a mold expert near me to get my house tested. We are always sick and we get better when we’re away from the house.

What about my elderly mothers house with leaky basement. She has to have tons of mold right?

I wish I would have seen this video sooner I was living in a house for 4 yrs and kept getting sick from headaches to colds which I never get sick I was losing weight had inflammation throughout my whole body almost losing my vision from inflammation In the eyes I found out that before I moved in the house the house already had excess moisture and he never changed the filters in 4 yrs so there was mold spores flying around the house the brick interior was black gray and white 😢 I took pics and the landlord still denied and now he trying to sue me for moving out I had so many infections that turned Into sepsis which is a life threatening condition I almost died and some of the mold was hidden because he remodeled the whole house and painted over the mold

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: (Hebrews 9:27)
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. (2 Peter 3:9)
And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. (Revelation 20:15)
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: (Hebrews 9:27)

To simplify it, the growth you see on random areas comes from a lack of controlling relative humidity.

They wont listen and I don’t wana stay down there how can I prove there’s mold

Mold inspectors in my state aren't required to be licensed. So 99% are lazy and inept. They do nothing like in this video.

Dust doesnt need droplets to form. When the humidity is 75-80% (or higher) its high enough where the humidity becomes the "moisture" to complete the trifecta (moisture, food, oxygen)

This is disgusting!!!! 🤮… stuff that just sits there

I already know that I have mold. What do I do now? I'm very poor. This is not my house, it is owned by a family member who does not give a care about mold.

She says that if there is mold then we are to blame because we don't clean the house enough. It's literally coming through the drywall. Her husband flooded the house three times before he died of Alzheimer's.

I am lucky to have a place to stay, but I need to know if there's any way that I can make this house a little bit more bearable. I can't stand breathing mold. It's in the air ducts it's in the attic it is in the walls it is absolutely everywhere. Black mold growth is so obvious.

I am at a loss. What do I do?!

I don't see the amount of mold in older open home's that I see in newer tight homes.

Plus her house has 50 year old carpet.
