Guest guest Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 I think you are missing my point about the toy in the tub being covered with black mold. its basicly is the same as the fruit and bread concept. what I am saying is that if your in a home where the mold problem has evolved to being filtrated through out your home its going to land and grow where ever it can. like what kc stated about the black dust at his wife's work place, I noticed that the dust in my home was black not brown, didn't have a clue than, why, but I get it now. this is another sign and people that dont get it are maybe not liveing in those condictions, where it has filtrated in your home to that extent. the last apartment I was in had a mold problem. the time of year and maybe my nose played a part in me not knowing but within a week I knew from my symptoms getting aggervated. I constantly fought mold in the shower in that place. my habits have not changed, yet here in this apartment, so far, I have not had this problem. same town, same water. 3 blocks apart. if anyone can amagine the dust in theri home being black and being able to land on anything that has moisture and food supply and growing, like fruit, a loaf of bread, a wet toy in the tub, dirty dishes setting, dish water setting, a leak somewhere, etc. they can see how mold can spread, more so than just starting from a leak and spores that come in from outside. that second home I bought had been abandoned for years, closed up and the mold there is everywhere, some places is just dry mold dust, other places where water or moisture is more available, its growing. mold does not just get where water and food supply helps it grow, it gets everywhere and and grows if it has the right condictions. the dry mold dust is what gets stirred up by wind,foot traffic, vacumming, ect. when a home has a severe mold problem to this point your not just breathing mold spores from mold that is in the growing process, your breathing old dry spores and what ever else is envolved that are traped inside your home and still floating around that are stirred up for what ever reasons. than if its stachy, and its filtrated through your whole house, you may also be getting exposed to toxins every time the dust gets stired up. and Im limiting it to this because its been the only one tested to show that the mycotoxins stay toxic for years even when its dry. and from what I read and understand, stachy spores often do not pick up on air tests because they are heavier but that doesn't stop the toxins from being airborne.
