I do mold remediation and one of our clients turned their heat on as we were spraying yesterday, after we told them it would need to be off 24 hours. Since our machines make a lot of noise, we had no idea it was on. Till they come downstairs coughing and complaining that they have sore throats. At which point I asked "why in the world did you turn your heat on?" and they said "it was getting cold" lol. They wound up turning it off and leaving the home, but some people NEVER LISTEN!!
Good on you Cory.
I have done over 900 mold inspections and remediation reports. And written a book chapter on mould bioserosolsa and have a doctorate in microbiology with a speciality in environmental mycology. This fellow has it precisely correct.
There is no industry with more shonky ripoff "remediators" using fear of microorganisms to cash in on folks impacted by mold. There are of course circumstances where a job might require active ventilation, isolation of the impacted area during remediation and/or structural remediation. But 80-90% of the time mold is discovered at home inspection during escrow period and everyone's utterly under pressure and freaked out the deal won't go through. That's where ripoff remediators often jump in.
If you have good instructions, with PPE you can buy at any Home Depot, you can remediate the vast majority of mold impacted materials yourself. Just be advised......mold comes from excess water/water vapor-condensation on (largely) cellulosic materials; paper, wood, dust, etc. One MUST mitigate the source of the water as well as remediate or you'll end up back where you started over time.
Uh huh. This was my approach. Scrubbed down the area several times after which I deployed a dehumidifier. Remove the moisture and the mold will not return.
So containment with plastic and negative pressure with air scrubbers isn’t necessary really?
Do you have any suggestion on removing mold in caulking? My Mom's caulk is black in some parts. I have asthma so it needs to be gone but she refuses to do it and has procrastinated paying someone to do it.
So I've taken it upon myself to do it. I'm planning on wearing the respirator and gloves. Should I also wear the suit when doing my Mom's caulk job?
@@ariannasilva4462 If it's part of the caulk I don't think it's getting into the air. Caulk replacement isn't difficult though so go for it.
Reading the comments inspire me to have my future home inspected by a mould specialist before signing on the dotted line. I dont want to deal with mould. I am not taking that risk!
Thanks for this video. For those homeowner do-it-yourselfers like me, wear the body suit, respirator, and goggles as he pleads. I know first-hand what happens when you get this mold on or in you -- I was repairing a main line water pipe in a very tight corner of a crawl space where I could see and smell mold. Well I'm quite certain that the severe pneumonia that put me out for two weeks was a direct result of this exposure. I will heed his precautions from now on.
Yes, you surely contracted pneumonia that way. I was exposed to mould and had pneumonia soon after, it was scary.
How do I check for mold safely?
@@kw9568 look don't touch? lol
This is a great short but to the point video about how to get rid of mold safely with a bit of planning. We've seen some disasters from customers trying to do this without taking the proper precautions.
@dethride Thanks for the comment and explanation of mold exposure.
I posted this video to help people understand the reality of the situation and the potential risks of dealing with it. In this weak economy, not everyone is going to have thousands of dollars to hire a professional mold remediation company.
So I thought I could share the basics of safety and removal.
"in this economy" = still relevant 9 yes later.
Thank you for posting a video to help others. I should have researched more before jumping into my black mold project and now im very very sick. I appreciate when people provide videos like this to help others out. Im sorry there were so many negative comments.
This is very helpful. Currently have mold in my apartment, and the "repairs" that are being made are questionable. Trying to better educate myself on proper removal!
They will not repair it correctly. Buy a mold killer, then spray mold block primer after it is thouroughly dry.
We added this mold removal to our playlist. We are making a complete a to z list of mold removal videos that show many different tips and advice that should be followed. Great video with precautions needed to properly remove and clean mold.
This my eleventh mold removal video today, and I must say THANK YOU!!!!!
The best one so far.
Thanks again!
Nivea complicated
Best how to mold remediation video for drywall that I've watched. Thank you!
Nice video! However, you're using the wrong type of respirator cartridges. Those 3M cartridges with the black sticker only filter organic vapors, but NO particulates such as mold spores. You would need a P100 particulate filter such as the magenta pancake discs or a combination cartridge with the magenta P100 prefilter on top (as written correctly in the annotation).
if he has a p90 cotton ones in the front i works too.
Who gives a fuck jerk off I wouldn't wear all that shit anyway
@@josephcarroll7107 Go on.
Mold is a naturally occurring thing. You breath it when you open your door to go outside. When you put mulch down guess whats in there? Point is you are always breathing it. Mold was never a problem until whining pussies started crying about it and wanted money from insurance companies. Now everyone is a mold expert willing to take your money. Love it people are dumb.
Leonard Hoffman That’s not true, mold can kill you. Mold causes liver failure and kidney failure. Mold is dangerous. I saw an episode of Hoarders, and this old woman had renal failure from the mold (so did her husband, he died from it). Her kidneys were only working at 10% due to all the mold in the house.
This is the best video I've found on RUclips on the subject of mold removal and renovation. Thanks for doing such a good job, both your remodeling and on making the video.
Actually, you don't know if it is "black mold" that is toxic without testing in a lab. Many types of mold are black in color. That does not mean you don't take the proper precautions. You should also have negative airflow systems to pull air out of the house in that same room. Just putting plastic over the vents is not enough.
I'm not understanding all of the hate? When did this guy ever claim to be a professional mold remover? All hes doing is just proving it can be done by the average home owner.
Not that it SHOULD be done mind you... Just that it can be done.
I agree with you. The gentleman did a nice job showing how he got the mold off that wall. I would think a lot of this is common sense once youve learned what chemicals to use and when to use them. I think I would tackle a job like this if it were contained in one area but when the whole house and possibly the attic and wall insulation, well Im not sure about my doing all that. I may be in this very situation with a home that I want to purchase. It appears that the home is infested with mold. I need to find someone to give me an estimate to see if I can afford to take on all this. It looks as though most of the drywall has got to go and the attic insulation as well. Then Ive got to figure replacing everything back. I really like the home and yard. I just hope I can afford to take this project on and come out on top! Thanks for the video!
The fact is that hes doing it without full protection hes is using a correct filter but he needs a full mask and to tape his joints unless hes is running through a decontamination unit before doffing which i seriously doubt, he is going to be taking in enough spores from just that to cause health issues to himself or whoever he spends time around. Mold should never be done diy if you havent been trained in it. Kinda like oxyfuel welding its really simple but if you dont understand the details it is really easy to hurt yourself or someone else.
Edit just finished the video, he did not set up containment he did not bag the affected material. Thats sloppy, he spread all of those mold spores around and as soon as a really humid day occurs mold will take root all over that place. He literally did more harm than good in the long run. If this was Stachybotrys you could be causing anyone you see in the near future serious health effects mainly your family and anyone else that in the future will be occupying that room, you didnt remove mold you spread it.
@@rorye4963 Where is your video, big talk
Yeah anyone can just take stuff out: Huge mistake. Never remove mold before HEPA vacuuming the affected material. Doing what he did will cause a large amount of spores to go airborne and spread more easily around the area. No containment or negative air pressure
.
Please just contact your local remediation expert for help. 1 bad spread of spores can cause permanent damage to people with developing or compromised immune systems
I would grab a flamethrower
Unfortunately I live in apartments and the mold is on my ceiling I have called professionals to come and clean it up but I can't really talk to them about what I think is the problem as I live overseas.. I will definitely try the spray and get my own suit and safety equipment to kill and at least remove the mild stains. Thanks for this info great video and very helpful!
Every house has mold unless you live in Arizona or extreme north. All air conditioning system have mold growing inside if you live in warm and humid climate.
Here in SC, mold is everywhere. There is no way to get rid of it completely. All we can do it to prevent it from spreading everywhere and covering everything.
I live in Arizona.
The EPA should have told him to HEPA vacuum it first, because when you disturb it, it will shoot the spores into the air! If you disturb it with the vacuum the spores get sucked up and trapped into the vacuum. Also, If you spray it before you vac it, it will feel under attack and shoot the spores into the air so it can reproduce later. So you always have to HEPA vac it first if it's accessable. Then ideally spray it to kill it, then remove it. Also, just because it's black, it doesn't neccesarily mean it's the toxic black mold Stachybotrys. There are also other different colored molds that are very toxic. Also, you may get away with breathing some in for a while but it does also have a negative cumulative affect over time. I know of a few people that have tried to remodel homes that had heavy mold and died from not having the proper PPE (personal protection equipment). A tiny bit may not be harmful if you are not allergic and depending on the type of mold. At the minimum, wear a white paper mask with the two bands that hold it on, not the cheap single band ones, and make sure they are rated for mold! A suit and goggles is safest.
Good Video. You have actually gone through most of the NADCA VSMR processes. The most important part is to take precautions when re-mediating - for both your health and safety and the other occupants, especially if there are infants or elderly. Engineering controls are a must to avoid cross contamination.
To Monica - Never use a wire brush or any process that will score the surface. Use a HEPA vacuum and biocide. If the material organic and damaged, always remove it!
Great advice on removing black mold! I really agree that you have to really be protected when removing mold.

I wish I had known this sooner. For the past month I have been having terrible anxiety, brain fog, chronic headache, eye swelling, derealization. The only thing I was wearing was a white mask. My boss told me some people are allergic to it, and him being my boss I believed it not to be a big deal. This stuff really fucks you up, I havent been the same since.
Kinesiology. Some people will laugh at that idea but it works. If they had toxic mokd, arsenic, and formaldehyde in their system like me, they would try anything. It works. Especially crazy is no "Dr." Found anything even with blood tests.
Mold is no joke.
Thanks Corey Binford. So places around where I live rentals are loaded with mold. Our local health dept tells us to just use mold and mildew spray in it. Most isn't harmful. B S . They don't even include it in their inspection more does Code enforcement.
I used a product called Concrobium Mold Control. It works a little better than bleach because it creates a long lasting coating that crushes the micro-organisms. It was about $9 at Lowes. Well worth the money for a little piece of mind.
Wait a minute .. doesn't mold feed on bleach ?? From what I have learned you only get rid of mold on hard, non-porous surfaces using bleach.
Thanks for sharing some good tips. I agree with a couple of the other comments. You have to remove all that drywall and probably the studs too just to be safe. Also need to spray prior to removal to keep spores from airborne travel just from the removal process. Sad for all the negatives thrown at you. Totally unnecessary...
I bought a house back in October 1985 in Alberta, Canada. A house that was built around 1935 to 1941. I moved in to the house. I noticed some black fungus buildup in the basement. I thought it was nothing to worry about. I am originally from the USSR and what did I know about the dangers of it at the time in houses, I remember moldy food then but not in a house. I was aware of it in the 1970s but my younger brother took care of it. A few weeks later, I started to get sick, I coughed all the time, My breathing was hard. I went to the hospital and thought it was serious. The doctor asked me if there was fungus in my house, I said to him yes and he said to clean it up and so I did.

Michael Zolnerovich Thank you love his funeral this Saturday...
Great video Thank you for posting I had two large boxes With about 200 vintage 78 records worth about $800 Bing Crosby Frank Sinatra ect .They must have been damp and than boxed when we moved, They were boxed & sealed for about three years and than I opened them, I just just sealed it back up and I guess Im going to take the lose . Its not really black colored it was like a greyish color but had a really weird smell and made me cough.
Is there a follow up video where you determine the source of the infiltration and subsequent mitigation?
Part 2? Really wanted to see behind the installation... Was there more behind there?
Probably should have an air filtration device with a hepa filter and pre filter in it to capture any airborne mold spores. Also good to wet down areas with mold with an anti microbial to also prevent any mold spores from going into the air. Honestly not that bad amount of mold. I've seen much much worse in my job
@assman778 Strangely enough I did not get sick or have any problems.
According to the EPA, jobs this size are manageable with the right precautions. I followed their advice and came out fine on the other side.
Wrong respirator cartridge, you took your mask off to talk, thus inhaling the spores. You have no air scrubbers running to remove the toxins as you work. The area is not quarantined, so the nearby spaces will be contaminated.
It is irresponsible to show videos like this to people. That is very likely Stachybotrys on that wall, and it produces deadly mycotoxins. It's not just the spores that you need to be concerned with. Stachbotrys produces tricothocene mycotoxins, which are extremely toxic to humans and animals. Mycotoxin exposure can result in immediate reactions as well as latent illness. You many not have gotten sick immediately, but years down the road, cancer, liver damage, etc., are possible. Stachybotrys is not the only mold that produces mycotoxins. Common allergens such as Aspergillus and Penicillium, among others also produce mycotoxins such as gliotoxins, aflatoxins, sterigmatocystin, mycophenolic acid, chaetoglobosins, etc. Tricothocenes are so toxic they have been used as chemical warfare agents.
Mold should be tested before remediation to determine it's type and whether or not it is in an active growth state. Remediation needs to be done by certified professionals, then the site is post tested to ensure the mold is gone.
I am certified and field-trained and also certified as Mycotoxin Environmental Specialist.
Don't play mold remediator or inspector. Seek out a Certified professional. Most states do NOT require training or certification in this field. Do you homework.
Good video, but that is the wrong respirator filter for mold, should have a 3M 5N11 N95 particulate filter fitted over that filter or just a 3M 2019/2097 P100 particulate filter.
2 of my friends became allergic and ill from the black mold in their apartment and had to move out and became involved in legal actions because the apartment management and others would not remove the toxic substance. It's best to consult professionals if you do not know what you are doing. If you do know what to do for mold abatement, more power to you.
The majority of the black on the insulation is actually dirt. Fiberglass is inorganic like gypsum board (which is actually a mineral/rock based product held together with cement and paper much like concrete uses cement to initially bind the aggregate together) so it doesn't feed the mold. the paper on the baton strip, like drywall, is a food source for mold but the black on the insulation fiber is dirt trapped like a filter from air penetration from the outdoors.
Howie Mandell, glad to see you've finally overcome you OCD. Good for you :)
Just cutting out the drywall you agitated the mold spores and placed them in the air. Setup a hepa air scrubber you can rent them from just about anywhere now in days. And a green way to kill some mold is by mixing white vinegar, baking soda, and lemon juice. Spray down the mold, wipe it down, then while wet cut it out.
Mixing acids with alkalines makes for a fun science project but is useless. Pick one or the other.
i'm in midst hell - mold ascended sheet rock basement ceiling to upstairs. Behind sheet rock on front/south wall of house (shrouded by maples). In basement cabinets, sheetrock walls, spare fridge.
Tools:
(1) Lysol Roller Mop Refill (cut 2" off each side w/Fixwell knife & attached it to 2-ft stick. The cut-offs were handy for cleaning as well.)
(2) cheap exfoliating glove (under which is double-layer of latex gloves)
(3) rough-woven plaid cotton dish cloth knotted around dish brush
(4) vinegar
Excllent video. You look like you did professional mould remover. Good safety talk. I would have liked to know how you dealt with the rest od the wall and the mold, WAs the roof the issue? I guess : yes.
Mold is everywhere in the air, in your car, in your house. There are more than 100,000 kinds of mold. The best thing to do is to have a dehumidifyier to keep mold under control.
A dehumidifier does not get rid of mold spores, it prevents mold from growing, an air scrubber or air purifier can get rid of mold spores to an extent, it's the spores that generally make people sick. If you stir up mold, they release mold spores in the air as a defense mechanism. Most, if not all, dehumidifiers do not contain a HEPA filter to capture mold spores.
Very well done, thanks for sharing. I had a company quote me a ridiculous amount of money to do this and I just didn't know what all was involved. You should setup a donation button on your website for just a percentage of the money people save by all these diy projects. Thanks again.
I have been exposed to black mold for 2 years and now and then I feel like the ground is melting.
Good feeling.
I have all the symptoms and my parents can’t remove the tiles.
Gloria Saenz
Because of the cost
And yeah, usually you want to remove the drywall two feet from the mold. Some state laws require that. That means the wall on the other side.
I think if you sealed the mould with a decent sealer or primer and put up some plastic barriers you could then rip out all the drywall all at once instead of removing it layer by layer. I'd also recommend filters for your mask. I'm not sure what cartridges you have on it but filters make it much more safer and effective.
White vinegar or 3% hydrogen peroxide will kill mold on porous surfaces(wood, drywall, etc), a 10% bleach solution will work on non-porous surfaces(tile, glass, etc). Put either one in a spray bottle or use in a bucket, DO NOT MIX ANY CHEMICALS! If you live in humid areas then get a dehumidifier, the humidity of your home should be
Shouldn't you first contain the area to avoid the spread of spores?
White distilled vinegar and 3% hydrogen peroxide won't kill all types of mold, they do help with some types though. 3% hydrogen peroxide is usually too weak to kill mold at any capacity, you'll need 8-10%, and vinegar is more of a preventative not a killer.
Concrobium does very well for some molds, but you'll probably need a Ammonium based cleaner if you have Stachybotrys=which is the "toxic" mold that I had in my house.
And yes, you must contain the area, with plastic wall barriers and air scrubbers, or mold spores fly around everywhere, contaminating everything.
@@SAF4EVER I'm not sure what you mean by air scrubbers if you're talking about some kind of air conditioning or filtration system but my younger brother who already has some serious health issues recently found some black mold and he is already becoming much more ill from exposure to it and some days has trouble breathing and can feel his throat closing up a little bit... it's a long story and he doesn't think he and my birth defected sister can get out of there because he's pretty sure the homeowners insurance does not cover for any kind of black mold at all and he has been wearing the Tyvek outfit and he's trying to be careful but he said he scrubbed the windows down with some kind of bleach and that later he could see the spores coming back... he is devastated because this all happened a week or two after our mother died and he had taken care of her everyday for 17 years plus with her Alzheimer's where he was her doctor her advocate her nurse made her cook her chauffeur and her guardian and best friend.
He ended up with B6 toxicity and is pretty ill and then at the same time this thing with the black mold and still taking care of our birth defected sister.. I am 1500 miles away and cannot help him but my heart goes out to him because he is so devastated and brokenhearted over all this .
@@gardensofthegods google "Air Scrubbers"....they're expensive but you can rent them too...have him try Fiberlock products, Shockwave and/or strong hydrogen peroxide. I used the peroxide to pre-treat, and then the Shockwave. Don't mix them though, the peroxide is not wiped, it sits for 24 hrs HE HAS TO BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WITH THOSE PRODUCTS. Stronger peroxide can seriously damage you, especially your eyes
Thank you Corey. This was depressing but very helpful.
you prolly dont care but if you guys are bored like me atm then you can watch all of the new series on instaflixxer. I've been streaming with my girlfriend these days :)
@Ace Royal Definitely, have been watching on InstaFlixxer for years myself :)
Problem with mold is that there are hundreds of types, and only certain types are toxic to some people. Some people are not effected at all. Obviously the key is keep things dry and well ventilated.
The use of a HEPA vac and air scrubber was needed for this job, bare minimum. I appreciate the video, but this is not the best way to avoid spreading mold. You didn't claim it was though, but I think some people who watch this video are going to do this for their home with disastrous results.
I'm from the Sandy affected area. There's black mold already growing under the house floor boards. It sucks
After reading below - some of the comments - you must use the correct equipment, negative air and air scrubbing - be careful of some of the products used some of the products off-gas products are not used according to manufacturer recommendations and you try to shortcut the process. You can create new/additional problems - after mold removal. It is recommended third-party testing using non-generic products because the adhesives when doing nonviable testing may not be reliable - some of these products try to shortcut the time - which will give you a different result - remember the lab is not your third-party there only the processing center
I really want to see you do the whole job so thanks a lot for talking through the whole video
To some this may seem extreme and it did to me but my friend and her husband bought this house and got a good deal. One thing though she complained about mold in the basement. They broke up and abandoned the house but now she has to have her lung removed as mold settled in it.
The way that black mold looks for some reason reminds me of soot marks even though they're both different things
@HowToHomeInsulation Not everyone will have a negative reaction to mold. Some people react only to certain molds. @assman778 is actually correct on the negative air comment. To do the work properly, you should have negative air or some kind of air scrubber on an open loop running while performing your work. You should also be using a HEPA vacuum to suck up any dirt/dust from removing the mold that would have fallen (a ShopVac would just throw the mold spores back into the air)
At what level is the mold "TOXIC" that requires PPE? And does fiberglass allow mold to grow? Or is that dirt in the fiberglass?
Does anyone watching this video know of a person who was killed by mold. Some people over react to just how bad "toxic" mold is. Mixing cleaning agents to clean the mold is more dangerous than the actual mold.
I have known some people who became extremely ill from toxic mold where they had trouble breathing and felt their throat closing up and had to be hospitalized.. people who have already been experiencing damaged immune systems really do need to beware
@@gardensofthegods Fair enough. Sure there are those who will become ill, but for the average person there is little risk.
Hi Corey, I want to buy a home but I just found out that the basement was under 15 inches of water and a long time and now the basement has mold. How do you remove mold from the basement which has concrete walls and no drywall?
Use Mold remover.
i had mold on the bottom wall anthey covered it over with plaster board and later this horrible stench came i thoughtb iwas mice but its mold and it makes me feel sick
i was told to drill hole in plasterboard for ventilation
Do you know what wet carpet smells like, thats a mold oder right there. You cant cover mold up it will always find its way into the air until its removed.
its ok it was not mold it was my new flooring plastic lino
I'm going to try that tomorrow, I'm tackling a black mold removal project right now.
So where is the follow up video, how far did it go, did you find the roof leak?
I do not know everything about mold but, watching this video and reading comments, I get this feeling of - something. Mold is spreading thanks to myths and ignorance. One cannot 'kill' mold; I've been in mold remediation for 20+ years and I did learn that much. Why we can't kill it? Cause... Let me not go into that, it's a large subject... Mold can be managed: yes, killed: no. Thanks to all, epa included, I was extremely buzzy. I know that nobody needs advice yet: here it comes. Don't pollute your place before learning, for real, what it has to be done and how? People looked at me, in amazement, when I would walk into their home and tell to them exactly: how they polluted big part of the house. First off; much more is needed than few instructions about safety suits... Mold is alive and all it needs to multiply is: certain temperature, humidity and a single spore. I really do think that it pays to contact 'professional' first, in order, do not pay dearly, later on. I've seen comments, here, from so called 'professionals', which do not make sense at all? Mold removal could be simple but: it is so far from being so simple...
peter58peter huh:?
You have to use the biocide and some sort of wire brush. If the wood is so wet that it is breaking off, you may need to replace it.
Is there a part two?
Wow, talk about going overboard with paranoia. I removed a drywall from a ceiling caked with black mold, wore a simple surgeons mask and ripped the shit right out. Bleached the wood behind it, repatched and reinsulated, that was 6 years ago, never got sick and never had another problem. Some people watch to much Holmes Inspection.
how much does it cost to fix? because my house also have molded wall and it is bad so i'm planing to use some company that work on these stuff
@Kenzofeis right with eversharp, as i've discovered to my shock. I'm still in midst of the endless hell of cleaning from mold everywhere in the house. I've learned that it makes sense to locate furniture away from outer walls of house. In my case, the south wall proved bad because of huge maple trees too close to the house, undermining foundation & blocking sun. Mold's repelled by DRY wood, contact paper, paint. Mold likes SMOOTH wood. Even plastic walls inside spare frig (unplugged
Just finished watching this video and i am bloody terrified! I live in a student house and i have a large amount of black mould in my room. I had it last year and managed to remove it. It has come back twice as bad. I'm sleeping next to it and as its a rented property I cant go cutting into the wall. I think the roofing is leaking. I don't know what to do :(
Look for a new place.
Landlord tenant law varies. Typically you would need to notify your landlord in writing of the problem and that gives them some time limit to fix it. If they don't, you might be able to hire someone to fix it and then duct the cost of that from your rent. But look for a new place while doing that, so you can move out when the landlord jacks up your rent (often illegal) for retribution.
Thanks very much for the advice I really appreciate it :) I'll be sure to write them.
A covenant of habitability applies in all 50 states. By mould (the correct spelling) I assume you are British. The USA does NOT have the same level of knowledge and science as Europe. As typical in the US, our insurance industry spent billions covering up the science until they could re-write their policies in early 2000.
If I were you, I'd move immediately, and beware of porous materials like clothing, bedding, couches, shoes, or anything that could absorb spores, mycotoxins and debris.
A mold occupant will become sensitized and these belongings will likely need to be replaced by the landlord -- who is 100% liable for leaking roofs or other structural water sources that contributed to mold growth.
You may also conduct air and surface samples and inspections prior to departure, and the landlord cannot stop you. Litigation is rough, try to settle for the price of damages.
I am not an expert, doctor, or lawyer.
Contact all of the above and consider documenting everything, vacating, and putting what affects you into storage until you and it can be tested.
Oh, and ignore this video.
Hey guy I appreciate this don't listen to the gavones who know it all on this mad props for taking matters into your own hands
mold will die from vinegar use neat and spray over mold but you need once a day for around 7 days
you saved my LIFE, God bless you good Sir. Very informative and concise speech.
Great. Very informative. Anyone have recommendations on a landlord who ignores request to improve mold?

Have Fun:) Make sure you have plenty of black construction garbage bags and some duct tape or zip ties to seal them up good.
like removing lead paint you need to spray the mold down with water so it is heavy enough to not become airborne.
I want to fog my HVAC with Concrobium. But my coil is in a metal case that is only 1 inch away from the cabinet. How do I introduce the fog into the HVAC enough that it pulls it all through the system with all the vents closed but the furthest away, when the only time I get any air suction is when the filter is in place?
I would be SO GRATEFUL if you could tell me what I should do. We are pretty desperate here.
hey if I can't find the mold how can I stay safe ? my mom says it smells like mold in the new apartment :( I have a toddler so if this is dangerous I'll just move, help!:)
1part bleach to 5 parts water, wear gloves and a mask, spray the mould, scrub it, spray it again. The mold, im guessing, is around your windowsill?
Point is to use the bleach to kill the mold then use an air dehydrator to dry the rest out, those wonderful things you put Dri-z-Air pellets in to remove excess moisture.
I was just browsing to see what kind of videos fellow mold remediation companies are posting on youtube. Love it!
great educational mold video. Have you heard about advanced mold sprays that kill and clean at the same time ? We have had great success with following the examples you use in your video and then spraying these types of advanced mold removal sprays.
Great tutorial vid. keep it up , jimmy
Hi, I have black dry stain in between rafters on the roof plywood in my attic and around each nail is this normal? In some areas look like burned wood how can I clean his? thanks Hon
Awesome vid. I'm just curious, did you ever find out where the water was seeping in from?
I had mold in my closet it was black on wall i sprayed with lifesal took out leather jackets had little white mold on them just wiped it off damp dish soap rag moved coats up stairs mold never came back on leather coats took door off the closet and put vent from stair well in to closet mold never came back this was 10 years ago did i do it right this closet was above crawl space
I own the same 3M mask. You forgot to put in the filters! They are inserted on the outside and then covered with a clear plastic cap for each side.
yourfriendjason Yep, the video says to use P100 filters but he's wearing organic vapor filters. Organic vapor filters are worthless for mold. P100 filters are the pink disc-shaped filters.
Unfortunately, that brand of biocide was very ineffective in my apartment
I have mould growing in my room. My parents aren't acknowledging that I'm ill and say it's not the mould that is making me sick. This is the 6th time catching flu in 3 months. They wont help me get rid of the mould.
Sorry to hear that. You may have to move at least to another room, even if it is to sleep on the floor. The best would be to live elsewhere, heck even in a shed in the backyard, it might be cold but it would be ventilated, that might get their attention. You would sort of be camping .If you can afford your own place, move out, share an apartment, build your self a tiny home. RV's can be ok if they dont have leaks. I hope that you can get away from the house.
Are the caulkin molds health hazard too? I've got quite a few in my bathrooms need to dispose asap.
i think this is very cool if you know what you're doing or you're an adventurist! personally, these things give me creeps. while living in NYC, i called in ECCE services to fix mold problems in my apartment and they did a fabulous job. however, if you like the challenge go ahead and play, if all else fails you can always burn the damn house down:)
What if you accidentally touch it but then wash your hands? I had some on some old posters that I was wiping with Lysol. But it was powder like (black)?
The dust in a mouldy home is quite thick, it is different than the dust in a normal home. Maybe you should consider taking pictures of your poster ans throw them away. If posters got mouldy, check the relative humidity in your home, heat and ventilate the rooms well if there no sighs of mold. Check the roof and basement for water infiltration.
i am here to find whats best to remove house molds. i stumble on this video and im inluv with the host. haha geeezz hi Corey! 😍
Servepro is expensive, but they are certified and get all mold out.
Nice try but you missed one important step. First spray the moldy paper with full strength bleach and wait until it turns paler. This kills the regular mold but the spores are still active so do remove the wall paper carefully like he did with protective gear.
In most cases, a professional mold remediation contractor is a scam artist! I sold a house last year and the inspector noted some mold in the attic space. The buyer called a mold specialist and, for $75 they got an estimate for $2500 which they promptly threw back at me to reduce the sale price. Yes, the mold was there but I had added soffit vents when I bought the house which stopped the accumulation of moisture and stopped the mold from growing. Mold was in the attic space with no air exchange with the interior of house so no mold spores in living space. Whole thing was a scam to me!
2500 doesnt seem like alot if youre selling the house
When are you gonna start doing the work I want to see what you’re doing
oh my... :( i have mold in my apartment (that's rented) i certainly cant do this! I wish i could have this done! And I'm unable to move anytime soon. Which means i HAVE to live with the mold for a while. I need temporary alternatives. This is still informative, thanks!
Work out a deal with the mold. Give it money, food, hell, give it sex! You look like a fine woman yourself, I'm sure mold would enjoy some hot coca.
Really? -__- Lol
you need to tell your landlord for a variety of reasons. First, they HAVE to fix it for you. It is a liability issue for them and not only that, it degrades their property value. It also spreads very quickly if not treated. So let them know ASAP for your health and other members that live there.
hydrogen-peroxide mixed with water and sprayed on kills basically any mold
Phillip Coffey Nice! Thanks!
Ignore the haters. So depressing that people like R.A. exist. THANK YOU.
It looks like a vapor cartridge, but it's not. He's using a organic vapor/P100 particulate combination cartridge. Different than the P100 pink disk cartridge but that's because it's rated for both.
What can I do if I'm a kid who lives with my Mom and we know we have mold but she's too lazy to get rid of it and I can barely breathe at all anymore and I don't get the chance to leave the house that often

Yes, the standard is to put a fan in the window, LMAO! Yea, you're a real pro buddy!
I'm sensing some passiveness in this comment
does garage in town house have those sponge like thing inside ceiling as well?
I can swear that you're wearing a half mask air purifying respirator with cartridges rated for organic vapors (black band) rather than a P-100 particulate cartridge (magenta colored). No?
I can't just cut the mould from the wall it's a main wall it holds up the building, well this wasn't helpfull at all.
Ok sooo... I've already started hulk smashing everthing I thought was touched by mold.
So far I've gutted the kitchen hallway kids room and dinning room. I did it all by myself might I add(hulk amigos no bueno) and so far ive stayed here for 3 nights.
Wish I would have researched the project before hand. 🤢 hulk es no inteligente
