Yep, we got it the shower stall has been leaking and I started tearing it apart yesterday evening. What started as a repair the leak job is now a tear out the sheetrock and insulation PLUS kill the mold job TC or any others that have experience with this stuff, WHAT DO I NEED TA DO?

Back in 94 when we had the flood in the Albany area, we sprayed down the framing with clorox, let it dry and then repeated. Did this a couple times. I still have two houses I did this to and so far no problem with mold. However, the mold had not started growing when I began spraying. I also suspect a strong solution of something like TSP would do the job.

There is stuff that is used for mold other than bleach.
Google it, we had a flood here in Valdosta.
If your gonna do the bleach thing that is online too.
I also think there was info on the Red Cross site.
I would use pool chlorene as it is much stronger.
Don't buy cheap bleach if your going to use bleach.
Anything you can cut out and replace do its a spore.
Ventalation over a period of time so it can dry fans & dehumidifiers wont hurt.
Gloves and mask

IT IS TOXIC SEAL THE GARBAGE BAGS WELL BE CAREFUL.

GET CHILDREN PETS IMMUNE OR RESPERATORY COMPROMISED OUT AND AWAY!!!!!

WAM OUT

According to my havc contractor, bleach won't kill it. He recommends amonia or vinegar...I forget which one. I think amonia, but I can call him tomorrow and find out.

We did use bleach here with success. The article I read said double bag don't spread throw it out the window don't carry through the house. Must get rid of all porous material treat often must be dry. etc...

Got the pan up now and am starting to try and break out the floor tile this thing has been leaking for a while, rotten floor under the pan and lord knows how far under the tile the girl may have to skip travel vollyball this year

Let her do the travel.
At least she can shower on the road.

Travel ball cost us around $3000 and we may not be able to afford it now
