How do I identify mold on my brown carpet? What color could it be?
Recently, my allergies went bonkers in my apartment. My damp comforter has been in my apartment for about 4months. I noticed some blue stuff on the carpet. I used resolve on the carpet and it seemed to go away. Is there mold on my carpet?
Brand new carpet flooded is it safe to let it air dry or will it get moldy?
The sink overflowed in the kitchen when our frozen pipes finally unthawed. First of all it is illegal to have carpet in our kitchen in Michigan but we have a cheap landlord. And I doubt he will pay to have the carpet replaced. We’re expecting our first baby in July and worried about mold caused by the now soaking wet carpet. Will it be safe to let it just air dry or should it be replaced?
How do you get rid of mold and the smell out of carpet?
There was water spilled all over my carpet the other day, and didn’t have time to suck it up with the carpet shampooer. And, it had a terrible strong mildew smell. I shampooed it 3-5 times yesterday using a carpet shampooer. And, sucked it out of the carpet really good. However, I can still really smell it! Is it okay to shampoo again? Is there some other technique that works for mold in carpet? Thanks!
How to get water out of the carpet?
Water has spilt on my carpet. It is not a great amount but way more then a glass. (My house isn’t flooding or anything) Anyways, I am worried if I don’t get it up properly that mold can grow in my carpet, and I would be unable to detect it. Is that something that can really happen or am I parinoid? If it can happen how can I properly dry my carpet, so I can eliminate that threat? Thanks in advance.

Becuase it’s the basement, I’m not sure how long will it to take to dry. I’m afraid that mold will form if it doesn’t dry soon. Any ideas?? Please help me. Thanks in advance.
What are the laws for the replacement of carpet in apartments?
How long can an apartment complex keep the carpet in a unit?
I live in Florida and we got pretty substancial water damage and had mold growing all over our carpets. They were clean but only fairly… I am a neat freak!!!! I constantly was cleaning the carpets and after 2 years of mold issues finally moved out. Now we are getting charged for carpet replacements. I am sending them a letter to dispute but I thought I heard someplace that there was a law about about 2 years of occupancy the carpets should be changed… I agree… I’m sorry for you Landloards but after having several people living on floors it should be done.
Anyway, overall, the carpets are in good condition… the bottom line is that it’s mold damage not carelessness or filthness of my husband or I. I should not be responsible for mold damage which to the untained eye looks like stained carpet.
The water damage was from the hurricane…
I’m nieve and didn’t even think to take pictures of anything and have already moved. The best that is that the two years we have lived there I have seen them change every tennants carpet regardless… they probably are just charging us just becasue.
