Hi Trevor
I used to live in my parents old house and the only thing keeping it up was mould. I spent forever trying to clean paint etc. When I moved into the flat I'm now in I was horrified as I'd just got everything sorted and the wall by the window was black/blue furry mould. Tea tree oil ( wear a mask and gloves) mix tea tree with warm water and clean down the wall. Tea tree is quite strong so if you are asthmatic open windows while doing this. It's really worked well all over winter. I've washed it down maybe 3 times. Hope this helps
Peps 😘
Have others with fibromyalgia experienced toxic exposures like black mold?
You're not alone in connecting toxic exposures to your fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. A MyFibroTeam member shared their journey of discovering that environmental toxins, including metal poisoning and other exposures, were underlying contributors Show Full Answer
Some years ago staying in my grandmother's basement. One summer it flooded up to the knee's. The windows didnt open she had lots of boxes and books ect they got moldy. I could only throw away what belonged to me. And it had same paint from when I was a little girl proably had lead in it. SMH at the situation...
Yikes , bleach could make it worse and bleach is a nasty chemical, I have multiple chemical sensitivities ever since fibromyalgia struck me .
I have black mold in my kitchen and in my bathroom I have cleaned the wall with bleach. It's these old houses. And our climate is humid
