What is fogging? Fogging is the fastest way to treat products to a large area. Fogging should only be done with products that are EPA registered for fogging. Fogging is a way to atomize (minute mist) the chemical application of the product so that it may be delivered to every part of the targeted area extremely effectively. Attics, crawl spaces, large rooms or areas, and new construction are ideal for fogging. Pump spraying may also be an option depending on the application.

Barton H.

"I developed a very mold crawl space over a 4 year period. I had no idea that the crawl space had such a bad mold problem until I went under there. Water had been leaking for quite some time from a broken water pipe. I called a mold professional to come out. He said that the job would be approx $7400 to fix the crawl space. I did not have that kind of money to remediate the problem so I found your website on the Internet. It was the best thing I could have done. I saved $6,600 using your products and doing the job myself over a weekend. Through your help my crawlspace is the best it has ever looked and smelled. Thanks so much!"

Kim, Port Orchard, WA

"We had developed a extremely moldy basement due to improper drainage around the foundation of our home. So much so that when we returned form a week of vacation our basement had been taken over by black mold. We immediately called out a mold remediator and they wanted $24,000.00 to do this job. With your assistance and products, we remediated it for less than $1,500.00 including building materials. Thank you!!"

I read your section on crawl spaces and decided that I could do this job myself. Two days worth of work, save me many thousands of $$$. Much appreciated! "

Sarah Jackson, Annandale, VA.

"Your information helped me and my husband remediate our moldy attic due to improper ventilation. Our children and I started having health effects from the mold growing up there, and had to do something about it right away. We called a professional company out to bid on the job and it was over $7,300!  We could not afford to hire them to do the work, so we started looking for other solutions and found your great company. We were able to remediate this job for less than $500. Our entire family thanks you so much!"

"We went looking on the internet for information about mold and found your website. It is the most comprehensive website I have read about mold and how to get rid of it.  We are victims of Hurricane Katrina and did not have the money to hire people to come and fix our flooded home. Mold was everywhere. Using your information we were able to treat our home and be sure that the mold was not going to return. Thanks again."

BLEACH MOLD MYTH EXPOSED!


Chlorine Bleach (sodium hypochlorite 6%) is not effective for mold control and clean-up. Why? Mold's hyphae (root structures) actually grow into wood and drywall like roots. Bleach has a very high surface tension which can prevent it from penetrating into surfaces to reach the hyphae.    Because bleach reacts with the surface mold, surface dirt and surface material likewood, it can become inactivated before having a chance to penetrate down to the hyphae.  
Chlorine bleach causes long term breakdown of wood products like studs, sheathing, plywood, OSB, and other building materials over time.

DON'T TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT!  READ THIS:Here is an example of why bleach does not eliminate moldHave you ever used bleach or products like Tilex® to clean mold or mildew out of grout in a tiled shower?  If so, you would notice that it does a great job getting the "mold stains" off the grout, however 1-2 weeks later, the mold is back again....Why? The surface tension of bleach does not allow it to get to the roots and kill the mold and mildew. The mold is just being "bleached out" and the roots remain intact. This can allow the mold to return 1-2 weeks later, stronger than ever.
How do I kill the mold then?  Use an EPA registered fungicide to kill the mold at the roots.

Many household bleach products are NOT a registered EPA mold killing product.


University Study Discovers Bleach is Ineffective at Killing Mold on Wood and Other Porous Surfaces

     "While bleach is often recommended for remediation of surface mold on wood and other porous surfaces, our [university research study] study results illustrate that the treatment does not eliminate the surface microflora," is the conclusion of the Oregon State University study of the effects of chlorine bleach on mold growth on Douglas fir wood [an important timber crop in the state of Oregon]. The research study was conducted by Professor Jeffrey Morrell, Dept. of Wood Science, Oregon State University, as assisted by Adam Taylor [graduate research assistant] and Camille Freitag [Senior Research Associate], as published in Forest Products Journal, 54:4, 2004.
