Progress, However Slow


I continue on with the Vortex. I have actually completed the first fungicidal spraying, and have begun the second. It is every bit as unpleasant as I anticipated, but strangely satisfying to mark the progress. I have to don full battle gear, as I don't want to kill any lung or eye tissue. I have to continually pump up the sprayer containing the solution and hold a light up to see where I am actually spraying. I have popped the lightbulb twice now, by getting fungicidal mist on it's hot surface.

I should be done with the spraying by next weekend. Then, I need to wipe down all surfaces with a mold and mildew cleaner that I just ordered. This is some expensive stuff, I tell you! 32 oz of concentrate, and it cost $175.00! Unbelievable! But if I was hiring someone else to do this mold remediation, I am fairly sure that it would cost several thousand dollars. My business partner had someone approach her, knowing about the moldy condition of the house, and offer to do it "under the table" for ten grand! He used to be in the mold remediation business. He said his offer was about "half price".

Think of all the money I am saving. Think of how well people get paid to do this extremely unpleasant job! Think of how I will NEVER buy a moldy house again!
