Q. My wife and I have a new mobile home in May, 2005 and are experiencing severe buckling of the floor and mold. Can you shed some light on what kind of mold this would be and how it should be removed. Our home is structurally compromised and starting to smell in some areas.The set-up company did not put down a moisture barrier and the manufacturer says this is not caused by untreated wood.

A. You should reject and replace this mold-infested home that has what appears to be severe mold infestation widespread in its flooring. It is likely that the water damage has caused hidden mold growth inside walls, floors, ceilings, and the heating/cooling system. From the photo's one of the mold's, blusih-green is most likely to be the number three most dangerous indoor mold Penicillium. Have the insides of the floors, walls, ceilings, and heating/cooling equipment and ducts inspected by a Certified Mold Inspector or use do it yourself mold test kits from a large hardware, home improvement, or safety store. Learn the 25 steps for safe and effective mold remediation. Learn about new home mold. Learn about the health consequences of living in such severe moldy conditions as your new home.

Q. I have mold in my double wide manufactured home and was wondering if you would answer. My home has Aspergillus, Penicillium and Stachybotrys from a home mold test, I have had the state fire marshal, my dealer, and manufacturer out to my house. We know there is some serious fault. The fire marshal gave us some advice that we needed to have someone check the home that would hold up in a court of law with the testing and inspection. My family have all have sinus trouble and my youngest has coughed every breath. That is my main concern for our health. [October 23, 2004]
A. You need to move immediately to a mold-safe place to live. Stachy is the most dangerous indoor mold because it destroys permanently brain tissue. Aspergillus and penicillium and the second and third most dangerous molds. Your family is already showing serious mold health symptoms requiring you to get medical intervention now. Do not take any clothing [except what you wear, of course, until you can wash it later with Borax laundry detergent in water] until you have mold decontaminated all clothing and personal possessions. The fire marshal's advice is correct: document the mold health threat with proper mold inspection and testing. Hire a Certified Mold Inspector. In case you are thinking about making any mold claims against the dealer and manufacturer, you should: (1) read our in depth book Mold Legal Guide, available at Mold Mart; and (2) hire a good mold attorney or environmental attorney [how to find one in your area is explained in the book]. Become your own effective mold expert to improve your personal home or apartment environmental safety and/or the environmental health of your investment properties by reading all three of our mold advice, email delivered books [Mold Health Guide, $15; Mold Legal Guide, $15; and Do-It-Best-Yourself Mold Prevention, Inspection, & Remediation, $15].

        Q. My husband and I and our almost 2 year old son live in a trailer that we are currently renting until we can afford to build our future home. The trailer was manufactured in 1973 and has been on this property for who knows how long. It has been rented to an estimate of 3 other families before us. The trailer is 'I think' no place for a family to live, but our plans for a new home before our son was born fell through. We had planned on replacing it with a modular home, but our zoning restrictions wouldn't allow us. We could have had a new home in 3 weeks, now we have to wait until we can afford to build a home, which now may take longer than we expected. The ceiling has leaked for almost 3 years, haven't been able to afford to fix it. It smells very dank, dry and humid. We have tried a humidifier, and no cure. I have suffered sinus infections over the years since living here. My son has been fighting numerous medical issues, which as far as I know are not serious, but may be a concern if this trailer is what is causing the problems. Since late last year we had problems with his breathing. We had a bronchoscopy done and found out that his bronchial tube was not fully formed, which now causes wheezing, almost like asthma. (This is a little more detailed than I I have time to explain). In turn the doctor had asked that there be no candle lighting, incense burning and such around him. But every now and then we need to cover the smell of this place. Around the end of August I had a sinus infection, and as mine was getting better, my son got one as well. His pediatrician said to keep an eye on it and contact her if it does not get better within 10 days. Well, he seemed better after a week or so, but when we had our scheduled follow up with the pulmonary specialist, he said that he still had the sinus infection. He ordered us a 20 day supply of antibiotics. We just finished up the last dose last Monday 9/27/04. As of this Monday 10/4/04 he has become sick again, with runny green snot, choking and gagging, having trouble breathing. I called the pulmonary specialist today and asked what to do. They ordered a sinus x-ray and scheduled an appointment for tomorrow morning. To add to all this we have also had mice problems for the last year and resulted in us getting a cat and we also have a dog. Our son has been tested for dust, mice, animal dander and common allergies. All tests came back negative. Do you think there might be a possibility that our trailer has a bacteria, mold or mold spores problem that we may not see or even know about that could be causing all of this? [October 8, 2004]
          A. The long-leaking roof means that there will be massive mold growth inside the ceilings and walls of your trailer. The most deadly mold Stachybotrys thrives especially well in an environment of a long-term water problem. Elevated levels of airborne mold spores from the mold growth can easily cause the health troubles your family is experiencing. If you want to document the serious mold health threat to your family, use our do it yourself mold test kits to mold test your entire home for mold infestation. Test the air of the trailer's crawl space, each room, and the outward air flow from each heating/cooling duct register for the possible presence of elevated levels of airborne mold spores, in comparison to your outdoor mold control test. You can buy mold test kits at a large hardware, home improvement or safety store. You should also collect samples of any visible mold for mold lab analysis and mold lab mold species identification by using the Scotch tape lift sampling technique. Collect a different mold sample from each different mold growth location. You need to move your family out of this mold hell as soon as possible if you want to avoid permanent health damage for your family members. Do not move any clothing or personal property with you unless you safely and effectively mold decontaminate the items in accordance with the precise instructions [for each different type of clothing and personal property] provided in our in depth book Do-It-Best-Yourself Mold Prevention, Inspection, Testing, and Remediation, available at Mold Mart. The same very practical book provides you with the step-by-step procedures for safe and effective mold remediation of the trailer while your family is temporarily living somewhere else.

          Q. We need help very quickly. We filed a law suit pro se against Foremost Insurance and we are treading water, barely. We had a great deal of difficulty getting them to do the appropriate clean up. The adjustor came out , made an initial assessment authorize certain work and disappeared for several days. He left mold growing over approx. 900 sq. ft. area of a 2000 sq. ft. home. It is a mobile home and he did not check under the house on that initial visit. One of the contractors checked the following day and found a river being held up by the vinyl sheeting. We could not get a contractor to remove it without authorization from the insurance company and the company insurance adjuster did not return calls from us or from two of the contractors. The water stayed under the house for over a week and the mold was spreading in the house. The company insurance adjuster would not authorize removal of soft goods from the house to protect them. He had the furniture and materials moved to an adjoining room where there was not even a door to protect the property from mold spores. One of our contractors is an expert on mold cleanup and they advised we would need to move all of the furnishing out of the home for treatment as they were exposed to mold growth. The company insurance adjuster refused to do this. We received a letter from the insurance adjuster giving what he declared was the final payment. He said we had voided the contract because we refused to allow the contractors in to work. We have written statements from the contractors, stating they were never told to either stop or start work and putting a lie to the time line he says they communicated to them. The insurance company has already paid twice the amount that the insurance adjuster stated as total damages in that letter. Our problem is we are not lawyers and we do not know how to navigate this system. Please would somebody out there help us. We do have pictures, we have a test of several mold plates showing an overgrowth of mold throughout the house. One of the molds is an especially toxic one. We also have a letter from a doctor stating responding to these tests that the house could not to inhabited by any body.   Again, would somebody out there please help. [April 21, 2002]
