What to do about black mold that is in EVERY room in my house?!?
we bought our first house 2 yrs ago, and recently we have started doing some work on it, fixing the bathrooms, etc. and we have found that EVERY room in our home has black mold on it. it is a 1987 doublewide. does anyone have any advise on what to do about this? mold removal products wont work, there is just too much mold. and its just too much sheetrock to replace. and ideas??
the mold is on the INSIDE of the sheetrock, not the outside, so there is no way we can spray it with bleach/water. i have tried it once before and it didnt do any good.
i guess im not explaining myself right? we dont see the black mold until we cut into the sheetrock. its on the inside of the walls not the side you paint
A few points; first you definitely want to have the house inspected by an environmental consultant who deals with or specialized in mold sampling and remediation. The consultant should take some tape life samples for spore culture and bulk samples and the consultant should take a spore trap sample in the rooms to verify level and type of spores in the rooms. You can find a list of local environmental consultants in http://iaqa.org. If the mold is toxic mold then you will have to have it taken care of.
Using a bleach and other chemicals even diluted is actually Not what you should use when dealing with mold. To find out more information on why not to use bleach or chemicals to remove mold check out this link:

Also I would not recommend contacting the EPA. If you do and there is toxic mold (Stachybotrys chartarum) depending on the level the EPA would actually evict you from your home and if the levels were bad enough they could burn the home down with everything in it including all of your cloths and any vehicles you have. They have done this in the past.
In the site listed above: http://moldrx4u.com Dr. Close Ph.D, P.E. has discovered a new anti-fungal agent that kills mold in the air and on surfaces and has found it very effective in the remediation of mold. There is a lot of information on this site about toxic mold and what you can do about it.
