Black mold in houses: How do you eliminate this
problem?
--------------------------------------------------------
What
it is and isn't
First,
most molds look black, so don't panic when you see one. The one
hogging today's conversation is Stachybotrys atra, or Stachy (STACK-ee)for
short -- and actually it's green-black.
The
mold you see on the concrete wall behind your washer and dryer might
be black, but it's probably not Stachy. Nor is the black mold on
the grout in your shower. Stachy doesn't grow where it's exposed
to air and light.
Stachybotrys
is the most famous of four well-known toxic molds. The others are
Penicillium, Aspergillus and Fusarium. If any of these four are
in your house, you want to get rid of them. Though research is
skimpy and conflicting so far, its likely they can trigger illness
in some sensitive people.

"Before using DampRid, there was a musty
smell in my closet. At times, my boots would get a moldy
film on them. After using DampRid, both problems
have been completely eliminated." P.
Robbins Palm Beach, FL

there was so much moisture in my closet! My closet always
smelled a little musty, but this product absorbed the odor and
the moisture."

collect in your storage unit and help protect your valuables
