The problem was lack of proper insulation in ceiling and walls. The solution was to take down the ceiling and walls and add insulation. It worked but was a BIG job! In fact, our bathroom is now the last place mold would grow since it is the warmest room in our house.

I have been using your mosquito advice, your laundry advice and ESPECIALLY your anti-smell advice. Already, I am noticing a difference, just by putting the fan in front of my bathroom. <br /><br />Ay una pregunta! What do you know, sir, about condensation? ? ? I have had some serious problems with condensation. So much so that my cat drinks water off of the windows, and I have found ounces of water in the covers of my light fixtures. What advice can you give to help me avoid losing my life and my lace-doily collection to a horrific fire caused by condensation?Tram1https://www.blogger.com/profile/15857989198155886999noreply@blogger.com
