If you can prove me wrong, it's all yours.

As to how much.....trust me, it'll be worth the trip.

If you are wrong, you owe me your annual salary.

OK?

David,

You may want to re-think that offer and look at the pics again.
I'd hate to take your money.

Barry,

The rotted areas are pretty obvious.

When Nick posted his pic and asked "What are these spots", I'm pretty sure he was referring to the mud dauber nests, and not the rotted wood.

If Nick doesn't know what rot is, he needs to get involved in some iNACHI courses.

Does this mean I can't collect my early Xmas bonus?

i agree with David, if you look towards the back, there are a couple with the tubes intact, they are the color of concrete because most of their material is coming from the powdered mortar, off the brickwall in the background, but when it dries out, it just falls off the rafters. That's my story, and I'm sticking with it!

I'm glad you've figured that out (on your own) Barry.

Those spots (that Nick are asking about) are definitely Mud Dauber Nests. No questions asked.

Also, I have no idea why Nick posts something here and then ignores the remainder of the thread.

Ricky,

You claim to be.....

If you can't tell the difference between Mold, Rot and Mud Dauber nests, you should seriously think about going back to school.

We are Bashing now ha!!! I don't Clain to be, I am IAC2 certified are you?

Let me say; The wood rot is evident! and moisture intrusion leads to mold. Nick didn't say what are the white spots in his post. You all are referring to one picture and there were two pictures in the post. White and Green spots.
Mold comes in every color of the rainbow. I am not saying the white spots arn't daublers. I am saying I can see potental mold in the pictures.

Maybe You should go to school my freind!

Ricky Boy,

Did you take your meds this morning?

If you did, then it's pretty obvious that you need to go see your psychologist....

I would be more concerned with the missing ridge board [second photo] than with the spots.

Your not worth it!
