I had a new tenant send me a picture of white fungus growing out of the wall next to the bathtub. They have only been in the house 3 days. It looked like expanding foam and I really thought it was, but no, it is really fungus.

I already stopped the water that caused it. It was a fresh leak. How do I kill this fungus so it never comes back? --173.233.xxx.xxx

I learnt this on the intergoogs:

The mushroom is the flower of the actual plant. Ya gotta kill the stuff in the wall.

We’ve had such blooms at the baseboard near sliding doors that were not properly sealed.

Mold armor or concrobium, shoot it thru a straw after you drill a hole. --76.188.xxx.xx

RMR-86 stain remover and botanical.

Complaining after 3 days, these will probably be fun tenants. --50.107.xxx.xxx

NE, the jury is still out on that one.

So far, the complaints are legitimate. I actually appreciate tenants who promptly report problems.

On the flip side, I have a three year tenant leaving this week. I've asked him regularly if there are any problems or issues and he said no, everything is fine.

Now that he is moving out he sent me a LONG list of chronic problems that could have been corrected years ago. Sheesh.

I'll take the "complainer" over that. --173.233.xxx.xxx

As long as they're legitimate complaints I'm with you that Gevans. I'd rather fix a problem when it's small than have a bigger problem later or a list a mile long at move out. --74.5.x.xx
