Toliet spill occurred in the first floor bathroom

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007

Hello…

Thank you for a timely response. The spill occurred in the first floor bathroom. No carpet, just linoleum . Bathroom, approximately, 5 X 9 square ft. Is situated over basement. Spill seeped down through floorboards onto basement concrete floor. About a 10 X 10 square ft. area of the concrete floor was wet, or the area directly under the bathroom. Nj is home. This happened months ago. After all I’ve done, the odor still make it’s presence known. I’m still fighting it!!
I’ve tried several products 2 gallons Nilodor Bio-Enzymatic Urine Digester, full strength & diluted, applied with 3 gallon pump sprayer, to bathroom floor, basement ceiling & floor area.

This is an old house, I’ve found the bathroom floor is not exactly level. I poured the product on the floor & watched as it dripped down on the basement floor, that is the area where I concentrate spraying to the bathroom floor, basement ceiling & floor area. Hope this helps you to help me!!!

Thank you for your question, Henry,

This is what I would do, if I came to your home on a Contract Job.
I will refer you to pages to read, so you will know why I am recommending these products and you can see why the products you have used did not work.

You are going to have to make things wet again. Is the linoleum in good shape?
Are you ready to remove it, to get to the source of the problem?

I would take the N O C and mix it 2 parts warm water (not hot) to one part
N O C and apply wherever the bad stuff went, the odor is going to get real bad, because it activates the bad stuff. Then your odor will start going down in 45 minutes and continue to go away.

Put fans on the area, until all is completely dried.

Then I would take the Germ Doc and mist all area.

I would be happy to explain the directions on the phone an help you.
In your pages on the product, will tell the square footage a gallon will cover.

PS:
Have a contract job to do Saturday for skunk under a mobile home.
That will be taken care with the N O C , Germ Doc. And fine powder.

Lift Tape Analysis Kit

Monday, May 7th, 2007

DIY Home Mold Test Kit or Lift Tape Mold Test Kit - If you
already know that the substance is mold and want to find
out what type(s) of mold are present, IMS Laboratory
recommends the Lift Tape Mold Test Kit.
To perform this test, peel back the tape
and press lightly on the mold. Replace the tape and
send it to IMS Laboratory for analysis. Using their
state-of-the-art laboratory, we can analyze your
sample to identify the types of mold present and tell
you whether the mold is allergenic, pathogenic or
toxigenic. This cost-effective option provides an accurate and
reliable laboratory analysis. Complete details on how to order a
laboratory analysis will be included with your Lift Tape Mold Test Kit.
We will then identify what type and how much mold is prevalent on the surface that was tested. When you receive your results call us for a phone consultation to determine a course of action.
Remember: To test for surface mold, you must use one kit per affected area.

No matter what you call it: mold, mildew, household mold, or home mold, there are always mold spores, invisible to the naked eye, but present in the air. There’s nothing you can do about that.
But you CAN determine if you have “normal levels” of molds in your home by performing air quality tests. Air quality testing is crucial in determining “the health of your home.” This testing method is important if you have a mold allergy, mold exposure or symptoms of mold allergies.
