A failed or incomplete remediation can be the most devastating, frustrating, soul crushing experience- especially when the cost ranges in 5 & 6 digits.

When you are drowning is not the time to learn how to swim, but this is the situation most people find themselves.

Often people get lost in a sea of incomplete advice or false assurances when they seek help from those within the mold industry.

If you’re wondering why you are still sick post remediation it’s because remediation companies often tell people these surface issues are “just cosmetic.”

The interior cosmetic issue may be just the tip of the iceberg.

“Cosmetic mold,” starts from somewhere-with the failures within testing-it seems like nobody within the industry knows, or is telling the truth about how hard this really is and instead sell expensive yet “easier,” or “quicker,” solutions.

In reality, entire home repairs can take months or a year or more depending on various factors especially cost.

If you’ve spent a ton of money on remediation and are still sick, they will often tell you the next step is to “treat your body.”

Many providers will be happy to sell you testing, supplements and detox kits- but the cold hard truth is still sick is still exposed for someone with mold hypersensitivity.

I’m sorry that this is so difficult.

The truth gets lost in sales tactics and false assurances.

Every aspect of mold illness is like an episode of the twilight zone.

IMO the best way to protect yourself is to understand testing limitations, understand commonly given bad advice by people selling home solutions- and also understanding that there’s no short cut to fixing your house.

You may fix a lot of it and realize there’s more issues soon or down the road.

If you’re lashing out at the people explaining this to you and refusing to understand, you’re not going to be in a good position for regaining your quality of life.

Although lashing out is understandable because mold rage often prevails.

If anyone ever said this was fast or easy they lied.

This is one of the most difficult things you can navigate but if you aren’t willing to accept that you are more likely to look for fast and easy solutions from people who will take your money and leave you sick.

Mold can be in several locations or many locations, so finding and fixing some of it does not mean you found and fixed it all.

The pics below highlight what can be seen on the surface vs what can be found below the surface as an example of how “cosmetic mold,” may really be a need for structural repair, along with replacing siding and windows.

One very important yet under addressed concept within mold illness is “the range.”

Once you have finely tuned your mold radar and can accurately identify nearby mold- you begin to realize that you can feel mold from very far away.

How far away do you think someone could feel this yard? For me it was about 30 yards and it made my old neighborhood intolerable.

Mold detox, dehumidification- air testing- it all falls short in comparison to using your own mold radar and identifying things yourself.

Yes I do realize this sounds crazy- i myself NEVER would have believed it had I not experienced it for years.

I think this is a big reason people who do yard camping dont see much progress- they are still in range but they don’t yet have that piece of their puzzle.

I went through this area the other day and needed to shower and change when I got home- just driving through the plume was enough to know I’d be in trouble if I didn’t get it off me.

Nobody wants recovery to be this complicated but this is what my mold mentor, Erik Johnson, referred to as the locations effect.

If you’re in range of a bad location, all the detox kits and dehumidifiers in the world aren’t going to help you recover your health.

Mold avoidance is not about traveling in an RV, running from mold spores , or going place to place calling everything you encounter “bad air.”

Mold Avoidance is a strategy you can employ to recognize health symptoms you experience in relation to your environment so that you can decide for yourself if your enviornment is a problem for you. It is also a strategy you can employ to recover your health and manage future exposures.

If you’re not following this strategy you are not doing mold avoidance.

People who think they are doing mold avoidance but are not, often end up dead or sick for endless years.

There are stages of mold avoidance outlined in this free webinar. The strategy is derived from one of our founders training in Military Biowarfare Weapons.

We don’t want to “convince,” that you’re mold sick- we don’t want you to waste money on testing that may be unreliable, give false assurances, or lead to some dr telling your sick from eating cereal or “bad foods.”

We want you to have the power to determine for yourself if your environment is making you sick, and this is how you do that and this is also how you recover and manage your health.

The people who mock mold illness by saying “mold is everywhere,” are correct.

It is everywhere.

Which is why you need to know how to recognize when you run into a micro exposure, or know when you live in it, or know how to feel it, and know what to do about it.

So many people leave mold but stay sick leaving them to falsely believe mold was not their root cause when it really was, bc they don’t know this strategy.

No mold doctors know this strategy. So you won’t get this help from them sadly.

They also tend to work against this strategy by selling DNRS or brain retraining- those techniques work against the strategy bc they tell people anxiety is from trauma and anxiety is part of your mold radar.

The more detailed you get at finding plumes and micro plumes using only your senses,, the more refined you become at knowing when you need to decon.

Barbie needs to know:
the most important aspect of decontaminating from a mold exposure is to wash her hair really well!!!

If you are a mold avoider living by their senses than YOU KNOW contamination sticks to your hair when you pass it or live in it & it can drive you nuts with symptoms.

Washing your hair well at least daily is a common technique mold avoiders use as part of a “decon.”

A decon is showering, washing hair well & then putting on clean fresh clothes post shower.

This tactic was derived from Erik Johnson who learned to sense nerve agent exposures & decontaminate from them as part of his biowarfare training in the military. Erik is also the prototype patient for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome- a famous UNSOLVED medical syndrome historically tied to toxic mold exposure.

Can doctors be sued for failing to know or properly diagnose the root causes of illnesses they treat?

My first symptoms as a child living in mold was misdiagnosed as allergies & years later I recognized it as symptoms of POTS.

17 years of POTS, UTI’s, depression and anxiety later, I realized mold was the root cause, in 2018.

It took until now to get a handle on my exposures, 2025.

Do not believe people who say “mold is not your root cause.”

Recovering from mold exposure, & navigating all the deception within in the industry- was the most difficult hing Ive done in my life.

This is not for the faint of heart.

But I don’t regret it, bc the alternative is sick self, sick kids and a miserable life.

Exposures still happen, and sometimes still confuse me a bit- but I am getting MUCH better at catching micro exposures and getting clear of them before they cause me to go too far backwards.

If you get sucked into thinking you’re mold sensitive due to only genetics or trauma, you probably won’t have much chance of recovery.

Navigating mold hypersensitivity is extremely difficult; but only impossible if you trust and believe advice from people who do not understand it….

…Which in my experience, was EVERYBODY who claimed to be an expert on the matter.

People often ask which inspectors, remediation or testing companies to use.

The honest answer is frustrating, bc it’s all gray area and people want black and white answers.

The truth is, there’s no inspector that will take off all the siding to find this.

The truth is, no remediation company is going to redo your siding, redo your window, and gut and rebuild interior framing of walls if necessary.

The truth is, you could air test this on both interior or exterior sides, and the test probably wouldn’t pick up much bc air tests collect at 2 or 5 ml of air- far below what you inhale hourly.

The truth is, an air test ✨may✨ show higher results on the outside, and that would be used as “evidence,” that inside is fine bc there’s higher numbers outside.

The truth is, even IICRC certified companies rely heavily on visual inspection.

The truth is, most mold is not in a visible location.

The truth is, if you can’t learn to use your mold radar to detect stuff like this, your power over your health is lacking, and youre vulnerable to tactics that will falsely assure you that you’re fine when you are not.

The truth sure is frustrating, but I will take the difficult truth over lies that kill any day.

The best way for Drs to educate the public abt mold illness is to learn & tell the detailed historical facts of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Telling drs + researchers facts to pressure acceptance. Mold @ ground zero for CFS is well documented.

A University of Michigan researcher and her boyfriend are accused of trying to smuggle a “dangerous biological pathogen” that can harm crops into the U.S.

Exposing Mold was created to warn you about failing tactics in the mold industry.

The tactics that keep you sick, rip you off, and generally are no good.

Now we are seeing business COACHES pop up to take advantage of the misinformation.

For gods sake there’s enough super sh*tty remediation companies failing homeowners left and right. And now they are being COACHED on how to do it!!!

Even the NIH updated their website to say mold causes depression, anxiety, neurological problems and can reprogram the immune system.

This is a perfect example of how sales people and coaches are leading others straight to hell and do not give AF.
