Return of the Mold
We thought we had gotten away from it, over the last month or so it has become clear that we have not. There has been a little mold/fungus here and there (in the bathroom and along all windowsills) the whole time we've been in this apartment, but we've been keeping it at bay by spraying bleachy water pretty regularly. However, when it started getting cold and we got a lot of condensation on the windows and, I suppose, on the walls, we have noticed a lot of mold growing in various places. It is even attacking our furniture. This weekend we have cleaned mold from the futon and mattress in the guest bedroom, the mattress in our bedroom, some of the things we kept under the bed, and on one of the love-seats in the living room. It is insidious! This is without a doubt the reason that this apartment is as cheap as it is, that and the fact that it's drafty and hasn't been updated since it was built. We need a couple of industrial strength dehumidifiers to get us through the winter, I guess. Ebay, here we come!
