Naw... they were too neat to saute

Besides, I don't think they would have survived me picking them.

I haven't had any good "spikes" for years come to speak of it.

Here is some of what was included in the report:

Quote:
One or more areas are conducive for, or shows signs of potential mold and/or fungal growth and/or contamination. Health risks associated with mold and mold spores may include allergic reactions, asthma, and other respiratory complaints (this is not an exhaustive or exclusive list). Recommend client(s) consult with a qualified industrial hygienist, mold abatement specialist, or certified mold assessment inspector for further evaluation of mold conditions and determinations.
Quote:
Cellulose-based debris such as wood scraps, form wood, cardboard and/or paper were found in crawl space. All cellulose-based debris should be removed to avoid attracting wood destroying insects and organisms.
As well as addressed the numerous water and moisture intrusion problems.

"A field of fungus among us." I appreciate the illiteration and the rhyme, but I'm going to report you to the protocol police for using the word "fungus." The protocol police want inspectors to defer to a specialist for evaluation of, "a biological organism of unknown origin."
