    Minimize mold
    Fungus is a parasite that can literally 'grow on you.It can grow on
    nonliving organic material, too, in several forms--mold, dry rot, and
    downy mildew.Fungi reproduce by producing spores. The spores are the
    real problem, as millions of them float through the air to be inhaled
    in every breath, touching off an allergic reaction that can contribute
    to asthma. It is advised :
    * Keep your windows closed, because the mold spores can come right in
    through the windows even if the windows have screens.
    * Stay out of attics, basements, and other dank, musty places.
    * Wear a face mask and give your bathroom a going-over for signs of
    mold. (Better yet, have a nonallergic family member do this.) The most
    likely spots for mold growth: dark areas, such as the backs of cabinets
    and under the sink.
    * Examine all closets regularly to see that molds have not set up
    housekeeping in unused shoes and boots.
    * On a regular basis, have a family member or friend investigate the
    inner workings of air conditioners, humidifiers, and vaporizers in your
    home where molds like to grow.
    * Periodically check houseplants for mold growth. In fact, getting rid
    of mold will help your plants, as well.

  3. Actually, searching on complete phrases of that length rarely yields
    useful responses. One is much better served entering a combination of
    words and sentence fragments grouped by quotation marks.

    Keeping my windows closed and staying out of my attic and basement
    unfortunately aren't realistic possibilities, but nevertheless thanks
    for the mold primer.
