Abstract:
There are only three reasons to clean up mold
_ Health
_ Structural
_ Aesthetic
Since the structural and aesthetic reasons are far less dramatic (especially for the media) and less remunerative for claimants and their lawyers, _health@ has become the driving force behind the frenzied movement to assess and remediate mold.
Let us examine some important truths about mold and health. I shall do so by making a number of essential points, all of which are grounded in well-established scientific and medical facts. Mold promoters (i.e., someone who has a political or economic interest in heightening mold phobia) might try to challenge these statements. However, their responses will be based on speculation and wishful thinking and will have little or no scientific credibility behind them.
