We recently found black mold in my sons room on the bottom corner of his wall and floor and also in my dining room in a corner. During Hurricane Ike, our insulation under our house got wet. When we were able to get home and access the damage we found that all of the insulation under our double-wide was dripping wet. I was wondering since it didn’t appear the water got inside of my house, was the growth of the mold due to the wetness of the insulation? Also, if I saw the mold in the house is it possible to have it in the walls too? I am concerned about this problem because I am hearing how bad mold is for your health. My kids all have allergies and it seems to be worse now days. Is this due to the mold? I took pictures of all the mold that I can see saw I can show the insurance company, but we are having alot of problems with them. One adjuster came out and barley showed any concern for all of our damages. We need to re-level, roof damage, insulation needs to all be replaced and carpet is all bubbled up. I requested another adjuster to come out, but they are refusing to send me someone else. They also only paid me for a single-wide and not willing to change that. So now we have the mold issue and I really want to clean it up, so what do you think? Will the pictures be enough or should I wait until they decide to send someone out to my house?
