My parents moved out a year ago and took my glove with them. Upon finding it, it had some slight green and black mold gunk in the pocket. I wiped it out and such, is there any more I can do or anything on it I should inspect?
thank you

This morning the builder found a leak from a sprinkler in our home. This leak had been small and appears to have accumulated in the drywall for some time. This has cause the formation of mold (black in color).

What should we push them to do to insure our health, in terms of how much of the drywall should I have them replace?

I bought a house, the owners moved out, and their 13 dogs moved out three weeks later.Cant get the smell out?

Ive already ripped out the carpet and the sub floors. I need a INDUSTRIAL smell remover. Perhaps something they use at a morgue. Any ideas would be appreciated. Also the ***** has caused black mold under all the baseboards. Any ideas on that stuff as well would be appreciated. Financial stress makes it impossible to completely gut the house, so I’m looking for the elbow grease method of choice
