This customers basement had flooded sometime prior to them purchasing the house. When they spent more than five minutes in the basement, the mother and children would experience migraine headaches, Fatigue, their sinuses would swell and they would experience respiratory problems like wheezing and burning in their lungs. The lab report came back with apergillus, penicillium among other harmful mold.
Not only were they exposed to the micotoxins from the mold but in addition we believe that this situation also creates endotoxins from gram negative bacteria that is found in soil.
I hope this demonstrates the importance of having water damage taken care of properly. |
