MOLD IN
THE NEWS
Mold,
Mushroom Can Pose Big Apartment Problems
8 Eye Witness News - Las Vegas
It's a highly controversial issue, and it can affect
everyone. Even in this arid part of the country, mold
can grow in your home. But how big of a problem is it
really and can the mold make you sick?
The answer is, even the experts can't come up with
definitive answer when it comes to molds. There is no
test to link illness to indoor molds, so while people
report symptoms ranging from headaches, to confusion,
rashes, loss of appetite, and gastrointestinal problems
-- those symptoms cover a lot of sicknesses and can't be
directly linked to mold exposure.
So a valley family didn't know what to do when they
found something pretty scary growing in their living
room.
Tenisha Lee-Gunn and her husband Antwon couldn't believe
it. "Mushrooms. I never seen mushrooms before, ever in
my life," said Antwon.
Tenisha added, "When I seen this, my reaction was I was
cursing. I was like what -- I have never seen. I was, I
was going ballistic."
Their television had shorted out. A puddle appeared on
their carpet. They called a maintenance man. Then,
another shocker.
"He just stuck his hand into the wall and pulled it
out," they said.
One section of drywall was so wet, it simply melted in
the maintenance man's hands.
"If we would have touched that wall before we even
called him. It would have fell in. It just, all the
white stuff started coming out. It was all wet like mud
type," they both said, talking over each other.
Behind the wall, a leaking pipe. Water had been running
into their floor for at least a week.
"That's actually where mold was at," said Antwon. He
said maintenance workers scraped away the mushrooms.
They cut out the carpet pad. They shampooed the carpet.
Then they sprayed sanitizer, but Antwon started having
trouble breathing. |
