A mum of a young baby is concerned for her child's health due to the damp issues in her flat. The mother, who wishes to remain unnamed, claims that the damp and condensation in her housing association property is so bad that there is 'yellow fungus' growing next to her front door.
She regularly cleans her walls to try and get rid of the black mould but says they are 'wet to touch'. “I try to keep on top of it all and spray once a week with a mould and algae spray and do a deep-clean once a month. I open my windows daily and have a dehumidifier,” she said
The mum was shocked to find what appeared to look like a fungus growing next to her newly-installed front door. The door was repaired in December 2021, after paramedics broke it down when she was pregnant. Speaking to Bristol Live, she said: “I’m glad my baby is not crawling and couldn’t reach the yellow fungus that was growing at the bottom of the door.”
