Description

Hello! This is Episode 231, and in it, I’ll be talking about what happens when you find mould in your home, how you should treat mould and what to do to remove mould from your home.
[For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/231]
I’m chatting to the amazing Alexx Stuart from Low Tox Life, who has a huge personal and professional knowledge and understanding of mould, and what happens when it’s in the home you live in, how it can impact you, and what you need to do to take care of it, and yourself.
In this episode, I ask Alexx these questions:

Why is mould something we need to be concerned about? 
Is some mould worse than others? Can you have a 'little bit' of mould and it not be too harmful? 
Apart from your home being inundated with flood waters, what other signs can there be that you may have mould in your home?
What are the ways to get rid of mould from surfaces, soft furnishings, the building itself? 
What are the methods of mould removal / mould treatment to totally avoid?
Thinking about the urgency of treatment after inundation / storm damage / flooding etc. Lots of homeowners who are insured are having insurance companies tell them that they have to wait for the assessors before removing wall linings, etc, and now seeing mould growing on wall linings extending into the timber frame of a home. Is there a point where it's too hard to rectify / dry out / improve?

My hope is, with this episode, and what you’ll specifically learn about mould and how it can impact you, is that it will empower you.
Empower you to push back on a builder or an insurance company who tell you it’s not a big deal that you have mould in your home.
Empower you to know how to properly deal with it, instead of using products or paying for services that may in fact feed it and make it worse.
Empower you to dig deeper with your health practitioners if they’re dismissing your symptoms as nothing they can help with.
And empower you to know how to resolve and improve problematic areas through a renovation project, or how to prevent issues in a new build, so that, in the future, mould can be easily dealt with and mitigated or eliminated altogether.
