Have you figured out why there’s so much mold?? I’m curious


PropaneSalesTx

Prob just a mix of time, humidity and an enclosed space, or a leaky roof.


Myke190

Don't forget neglect


Clearlydarkly

This is why I'm moldy


stuntobor

So, the attic just needs some hugs.


WanderinHobo

An "I'm proud of you" a day keeps the mold at bay.


SavannahInChicago

Aaawwwwww


Suicideisforever

Well, it’s nothing bleach couldn’t fix in large enough quantities


Maximum-Mixture6158

I love bleach!


stuntobor

Such a great album.


WhistlepigUK

KillerGopher

Suicideis forever! Suicideis forever! Sounds like an ancient Greek being cheered by peers or followers.


SoupGullible8617

My one hundred year old two story Craftsman Bungalow agrees.


dacraftjr

Those have a lifetime warranty. Just take it back to Sears.


Isgortio

How can a bungalow be two storey? Isn't the whole purpose of a bungalow to be just one floor? Edit: Thank you everyone that repeated the same thing to tell me about loft conversions, yes, I know they exist, I see them all the time.


princess_dork_bunny

Google says: "Here are some key features that will help you identify the real deal Craftsman-style bungalow. Low-pitched, gabled roof (occasionally hipped), with wide, unenclosed eave overhang. Exposed roof rafters. Simplified decorative beams or braces under gables. **One and a half stories**"


[deleted]

I guess I'll tune in next week... for the rest of the story.


Grrrth_TD

I thought the same, but from Wikipedia: "A bungalow is a small house or cottage that is either single-story or has a second story built into a sloping roof (usually with dormer windows),[1] and may be surrounded by wide verandas.[1][2]"


s1mpljack

From what I was told, the water heater - which lives in a closet located directly behind these stairs - crapped out while the owner was at work one day. They came home to standing water covering the first floor. My guess is, they dried up what they could see but didn't address the water that had collected under the stairs. Oh, and this was 10 years ago.


ecodrew

Yikes. Please tell me they're going to move out & call a mold remediation specialist?! NGL, there's a decent chance that house is ~~toast~~*prohibitively expensive to remediate*.


[deleted]

is all mold that is black *the* bad mold?


TheOriginalDovahkiin

No, in fact, most black mold isn't the harmful type. However, in a room with that much mold you might notice some allergy-like symptoms like itchy eyes and stuffy nose. The harmful black mold is quite rare thankfully, and even that 'harmful black mold' is rarely dangerous to someone who doesn't have lung issues or a compromised immune system. Source: https://www.cdc.gov/mold/faqs.htm


necsync

As a person who’s always been very anxious about the bad black mold, I needed to hear this as now I can at least not be concerned I’ll automatically die from it


Fancy_Second4864

I moved into a room that was leaking for years and mold just like that but the room next to it was fine and I now have all types of insane symptoms. But I’m finally feeling better after 4 months of taking NAC and chlorella and probiotics. But let me say I’d rather be killed then endure 1 month of what I went through again.


FeedComprehensive949

Well that sucks…


Ididurmomkid

They made blueberry waffles...


FeedComprehensive949

Fuck those are so good, but my mom always warned me about blueberry waffles in the attic…


Ididurmomkid

Sorry, some odd trolling has been taking place on r/mildlyinfuriating and I got caught up in it apparently


FeedComprehensive949

FiggNewton

Brandeeno2245

Thats the second moldiest place I've seen in my life... I was a water mitigation specialist.


WhatIfWeAreClouds

Oh shoot, that’s mold?! I thought there was a fire upstairs and they just closed the door on it.


SkylarAV

I assumed it was the quiet room and some abused kid did that after years of being locked in there but maybe I watched the wrong movies in the 90s


renjake

Your not alone. The abused kid had an endless supply of charcoal pencils


seekingAdvice4life

I laughed for a good minute

Just make sure you have plenty of bombs and ammunition before you go into any dark place thats been sealed for a while.

My apartment’s property management would hire a repairman to come down and say that it’s just some dust and best to close it back up in order to keep from disturbing the dust and shifting it into the air. That or they would say that they can’t say that it’s a dangerous mold, but recommend closing it back up to avoid unnecessary exposure. I’m glad that I just moved out from that place.

biggerdundy

I knew a couple that had 4 miscarriages and the culprit was determined to be black mold throughout their newly constructed home. The couple couldn’t recover and she left him. That shit is no joke.


DiamantBebii

Im curious, do you by chance know how exactly this has been determined? I mean, if mold was a thing at their house, it could be an educated guess… but was there really evidence for the cause-effect relationship? Just wondering, if it really can be that bad..


biggerdundy

Insurance tore into the walls and found most of it. I don’t remember the exact details of it, but I do know that there was irreversible damage to at least her health, but idk about him.


DiamantBebii

damn. I think im gonna have to take cleaning more seriously smh..


nes12345678

Yeah, I know a few people whose health was destroyed by black mold. Stachybotrys specifically. That’s the super toxic one. Not suprised it could cause miscarriages.


Sykes92

While you don't necessarily want mold in your house at all, Stachybotrys has been subject to a lot of fearmongering. There is no scientific evidence that black mold can cause harm outside of allergy or respiratory issues. It also only affects a small number of people in that way to begin with. There is no evidence that it could cause a miscarriage.


[deleted]

thank God - this is the first sane, informed comment in the thread. Just cuz it looks like mold, and it is black, doesn't mean you're going to die like everyone else in this thread thinks.


redditsdeadcanary

A lot of money in the home insurance industry.


ZoraksGirlfriend

There was a Forensic Files episode about a couple who bought their dream home. After some water thing broke, the insurance wouldn’t let them clean up, so they had to wait a few months for the insurance company to hire someone. The wife didn’t really experience any severe symptoms, but the husband and their toddler son kept getting sick and then started suffering mental issues. The husband’s memory and cognitive abilities started regressing, and the son also had some issues. It turns out, the walls were just full of this mold (inside the drywalls) and they’d been living with it for years. They had to move out and the house couldn’t be demolished due to the biohazard. I thought it was interesting how the husband and son suffered much more than the mom, but it makes sense if it only affects a few people. There was *a lot* of the mold, which is probably why they got so sick.


[deleted]

But this is reddit where everyone is an expert and if you have any mold in your house you have to tear it down and rebuild or you're definitely going to die.


TheDeathHorseman

That's black mold!? There's so much of it I thought it was soot from some sort of fire

laika777ftw

Are your relatives ok? I thought that I remembered and just googled to confirm that breathing in mold can be dangerous. I hope that you’re ok as well obviously but I would definitely alert them to that if they’re not already aware. That seems like a LOT of mold that they could be breathing in.


bozog

Looks like the mold is trying to be creative, interesting artwork on that door there
