Everything in my back bedroom is totally covered. This is a rental, is there any recourse? The dresser, clothes, blankets, furniture, all has a layer of mold covering it. is it worth trying to salvage my stuff? <Title edit. We don't have the F-word in thread titles. --tbk1> |
 A better bet once everything is cleaned up is a dehumidifier. However, the cause may not be humidity, their could be a roof leak, pipe leak, the mold may be forming inside the walls and growing through. If that is the case, everything will need to be replaced, sheetrock, insulation, studs.  I would seriously find a hotel or relative place to stay until it's taken care of.ETA; Can you post pics? |
| Be VERY careful! That stuff is dangerous.If your renting get the owner to call a certified mold removal company to quarantine the room and spray with Kilz. It may be due a water leak(pipe, damaged roof?).get rid of the carpet and pretty much everything else. because that stuff is tenacious! |
+1  plus, Hydrogen Peroxide works as well as bleach and only gives off oxygen and water (H2O2) |
