Robert Jones Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Would this statement apply, for example, the underside(attic side) of the roof sheathing which has been stained due to poor ventilation? It has been my experience that most buyers, and realtors alike, as soon as the word stained, fungal growth, mold is mentioned, automatically wants the materials "remediated" or replaced. Usually doesn't matter if the condition that originally caused the staining has been remedied. Here is the statement I am referring to; "However, removal based on the mere fact of its presence, or based on nonspecific symptoms that are not related to mold exposure, is often not appropriate."

CaoimhÃn P. Connell Posted July 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Kurt: How much of that can I steal for distribution? All of it or any part. Just use standard citations! Rob: Yeah, that would be appropriate - The quote you used is from Dr. Harriet Burge: Can Mold Be Safely Left Inside Walls? The Environmental Reporter, Vol. 3, No. 11, November 2005 Last week I found out that not only is Dr. Burge the Queen of Mycology, she also is an accomplished singer! Cheers! CaoimhÃn P.
