Black Mold!

       ----- the outside walls - master bedroom

       My contractor not reachable at the moment (family vacation I think)

       I have no idea who to call - what to do

       The walls will have to be taken out and replaced

       I never saw it 5 years ago --- water leak???

       I have no idea - the old phone line came in there and was leaking
       I had it moved

       The deck was up against it

       And the new water outlet is outside the wall - but that can't be leaking.

       egad!

       $$$$$ - Do I take down the wall? (If so - I will insulate the wall while it's open!)

       I hit it with Clorox clean up - I will try pure Clorox - hold it at bay

----------------

       And after an hour , the mold was dormant but still yellow - so I literally POURED CLOROX srtraight from the bottle down the walls.

       The web says "dilute----"

       Ha Ha - my way worked - the mold is DEAD!

       I do NOT have that green slimy mold (toxic mold) - this is more "it's damp think I'll grow here" mold. Like bathrooms get.
