Person on show used a hand held moisture detector up to walls to help

to find leaks. I wonder how well those work? Some people here who

inspect homes may have some input on those.

Also, they discussed too much electricity in the air. They said that

the 'electrical voltage' coming off of a sleeping childs skin there

was more than 1 volt. Person said that can cause hyperactivity and

sleep problems. It is from too much electricity in house air. In

this case crib was up against a wall that high voltage wires went

through.

They also mentioned mold and dust mites in carpeting and other things,

scented candles (said you can buy candles made from vegetable oil like

soybean oil that are unscented), etc. ..so pretty interesting.
