Insulation Mold?
A picture of a room in an older home located in Beverly Hills. Behind the
furniture, mold was found on the interior walls. Limited air flow and a
lack of insulation created extreme mold conditions. |
Shower Mold

bath tubs are a source of water. Swab samples were used by the mold
inspector to collect mold spores from the surface of the drywall.
