So my house flooded Friday night...

The rental agency said they couldn't get anyone out til today. A restoration guy came out and said MOLD! And the rental lady said he was crazy, so two guys with a shop vac ans dehumidifier came out. Now I'm just redoing what they did cuz I got the OCD.

Ummm mold is a very very real threat if the water got as high as drywall. Once drywall is wet, it can warp for one, and then soppy drywall makes a great place for mold spores to grow.

I got some spray stuff. It didn't get that high, it just spread out everywhere. I'm pulling back all the carpet to mKe sure.
