Who do i call to remove mold infestation?

[Schadenfroh]

say you walk into your office after a few months and their is bizzarre purple mold growing on the floor and walls, who do you call to "remove" it? Should i be worried about it spreading by clothing back to my house?

 

[vshah]

maid service?

 

[CrackRabbit]

Sniff it, see if its psychotropic. 😀

If it's that bad you should really call in a specialist. Mold can affect your immune system.

 

[fredtam]

Did you leave the birth defect specimens laying around?

 

[Schadenfroh]

ahh, that sh!t was on the dry board eraser too!

 

[Kadarin]

Bizarre purple mold? I'd call Ghostbusters...

 

[ThisIsMatt]

You should definitely have it checked out.

bleach, Use like a 20% bleach mixture in a spray bottle then wipe off the solution with a rag after you sprayed it on.

[ThisIsMatt]

If you can take pics, I'll show them to a guy I work for who does mold remediation...

 

[Azraele]

I'll second the bleach solution idea.

LOL...

You don't call someone, you get a bucket of bleach water and a sponge and then keep the room warm and dry to prevent it from growing back.

I would refuse to work until it was fixed. That stuff can really mess a person up. Seriously.

Yikes. :Q

 

[flashbacck]

um... that's very odd. Is it really humid where you work?

 

[gistech1978]

mold is a pretty serious health hazard.

i wouldnt go back to work either, and if they dont fix it. have mom call OSHA

 

[rezinn]

Yuck, that is really bad. Huge health concern as well. Places like that are shut down.

 

[ThisIsMatt]

bump?

 

[Schadenfroh]

OK, here is the deal, they cleaned it out of the carpet, tossed the items that were covered with it in the dumpster, they went in with a bleech solution, think it will come back?

The problem is that the source of the issue remains, so probably yes.
