Sutter Creek, California,
Home Mold

Q. My boy friend and I moved into our home in Sutter Creek, CA in mid February. When we first moved in, we noticed a small amount of mold was growing in the bathroom. But with the age of the home, and the lack of ventilation, we assumed it came with the territory and didn't mind cleaning it. I am currently just past 4 months pregnant. There was no need for alarm until we began to get extremely ill. After both being ill off and on for 2 whole weeks, we noticed that the entire wall in the bedroom was covered in black mold from the floor up. We cleaned and notified the landlords of the mold. They suggested that we keep cleaning to make sure the mold did not return. Also, to move our things out of the bedroom and sleep in the living room. When asked, they claimed this was the first time they had this kind of problem in the home. The neighbor had told us that the people before had to have the home repainted, with the landlord's permission, due to the mold. We had the Health Dept come out and look at the home, but they say there is nothing they can do. The Health Dept suggested we move the furniture away from the walls to keep our things from molding anywhere else in the home. When we did, we found MORE MOLD! On the wall in the living room grew huge, black, fuzzy mold. We then moved all our belongings out and into storage.  The mold was tested, only to find out that there were high traces of Cladosporium, and Alternaria. We were out by early April. The landlords don't seem to care. We notified them of the problem as soon as we noticed it was there. They have yet to do anything about it. They are also preparing to rent the home out again! My concerns are: even though we were there only a short amount of time, we were still exposed to a heavy amount of mold. I fear for my unborn child's health. And I am wondering if we don't see symptoms now, will we see them later?   [May 4, 2003]

A. Whether or not you will experience any lasting mold health effects from living in that mold hell is partly a function of whether mold is already growing inside your body and whether you mold decontaminated all of your clothing and furniture and other possessions before moving them into your next place to live. If you failed to effectively clean mold spores and mold growth off of your personal possessions, it is very likely that you have mold cross-contaminated your present living quarters. You might want to consult with an environmental attorney or a mold attorney as to your rights to damages for health testing, health care, damage to your health, moving costs, and for professional decontamination of your clothing and other personal possessions. Please visit: Mold Lawyer To know whether you have mold growth inside your body, you need to be carefully examined and tested by a mold-experienced physician such as a pulmonary physician [lung doctor]. With your being pregnant, it is important to know whether you have a mold problem in your body and or or in your personal possessions because exposure to mold infestation can cause birth defects and miscarriage. Read the in depth ebook Mold Health Guide.
