Foreign sample, or a swatch sample, as they're called, you're probably not going to find it. It can also be behind your drywall. Right. So we can find stacky hidden in these various ways that common inspections will miss. Now, sometimes people, when they find it, the most common thing to do is get a big bottle of bleach and pour it all over the mold. I would caution you against that, because mold, like most organisms in nature, has a very big desire to survive. So what happens the moment you splash bleach on mold? The spores go and they spread. And so you might have, like, taken bleach and some, you know, and scrubbed, and that area might be clean. But now the spores have spread throughout the room. Maybe they've gone into the air vents, and you've infected your air vents. Maybe they creep through the drywall.
