Black Mold Chicago
Question. Chicago IL - Our neighbor Ray was robbed by these guys wearing masks. Now he walks around his yard caring a gun and says he’ll shoot anyone who tries to rob him again. Our problem is that we have this black mold growing in our Florida room and we need to clean it up. Everything we read says that we should wear protective masks because of the spores floating through the air. But what if Ray sees us in the masks and shoots us? Here’s my question. Do we really need to wear masks, or do they just say that to get you to buy masks?
Answer - Well...my friend, just about every expert seems to think wearing a mask is important when you start cleaning up mold. When you clean you’re disturbing all those spores and they float through the air by the millions. You don’t want to breathe them into your lungs. You should really wear gloves, a special suit and a respirator. (One pro suggests an N-95 respirator.) Perhaps you could find a respirator that would make you look like an alien attack force and scare Ray back into the house. Or he might shoot at you even faster. But get that mold cleaned up. Wait until Ray goes to work or on vacation. Or invite him over to help!

It’s a sad thing to be clueless. Even while The Clueless Cleaner believes that cleaning can be fun and hopes to provide a bit of entertainment, Professor Q hopes that his research might point some folks in the right direction in terms of solving perplexing cleaning issues.
Here’s what you need to know. Other than being fictitious, Professor Q is just like you and me: Fallible! He knows nothing about cleaning! Out of the goodness of his heart he’ll look it up when someone has a truly clueless inquiry. He has dozens of reference books and of course the Internet. But he has not checked out these solutions personally and as far as he knows the experts he researches might be just as clueless as the rest of us. Probably not, but who knows?
So do your own due diligence before proceeding with any cleaning solution. Just one more slight word of caution. The Professor has noticed that a lot of these cleaning experts say the same thing over and over again, doubtlessly to cover their own tails. They say, “any one trying a cleaning solution should test it in an inconspicuous place–whether you are cleaning your silk blouse, your carpet or your driveway. Find an out of the way spot to make sure the cleaning solution doesn’t cause more problems than it cures.”
