Little black spots begin to speckle the wall, as a musty smell fills the room winding its way into your unsuspecting nostrils.  You walk across your living room carpet with bare feet and sense an unwelcome sensation of moistness seeping between your toes.  Suddenly realizing that water is penetrating the security of your home like a burglar in the night, your first impulse is a sense of low-level panic!  Where is the moisture coming from  Then, it hits you like a freight train.   Those specks on the wall are mold!

Frantically, you begin searching for the source of leakage into your home.  Lifting up the carpet, you notice water is all over the floor-base and sections of the wood molding are dry while one long patch under the speckled portion of the wall is completely saturated.  The problem could be that the actual leakage is coming from within the wall and not from an easily detectable area such as a patio doorway.  You wonder how long this has been happening and what can be done about itfast!  You and your wife are elderly and maneuverability is difficult, so tackling this problem could be beyond your physical capabilities.  What can you do

You and your wife have been having sinus problems over a six-month period with constant attacks of flu-like symptoms.  Is there a connection between your discovery of mold contamination and the health problems you are experiencing  Is mold exposure hype or really dangerous (more…)

The myth that mold clustering and mycotoxins entering the human body through inhalation �are not� hazardous to health is absolutely absurd! Let�s evaluate this statement first, with common sense and without any conflicting science to clog our minds.
Given this, our initial question is most appropriate. What primary purpose do microbes, animals, and plants have on earth? The answer is that they all contribute to activate a process called �dust-to-dust,� or if we want to add the scientific term to this it is it is called the, �carbon cycle.�
What is the �carbon cycle� and what does it accomplish? The carbon cycle consists of steps by which carbon in the form of carbon dioxide, a gas produced by the oxidation (depletion of electron production) in carbon (one of the original building blocks of life) is released and recycled into the Earth�s atmosphere and is reused in the creation of life. Having become a living product of cell respiration (or, a process of the molecular exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide within the body�s tissues) the carbon dioxide is extracted from and returned to the atmosphere by living, breathing and (more…)
