Need Help: Came back to my room infested with mould

iii Stevo iii

Need a quick answer so AH best option after 1am.

Came back to my college room today after easter break to find the most disgusting smell. Looked around and it turns out I had forgotten to bring a bowl of weetabix (full of water to prevent sticking) to the kitchen before I left.

I've discarded the bowl so the mould is no longer in the room, opened the windows and lit a scented candle. What are my next steps?

Read up a yahoo answers post and it said this:
'Also mold has spores that stick to EVERYTHING and its very bad for your health. When demolding a room all items must have a proper cleaning.'

Fcuk this, am I ok to sleep here tonight? Does all my bedsheets/clothes in the room have to be cleaned?

You will die if you sleep in that room.

Burn it down. It's safer that way.

Chris P. Bacon

You eat weetabix with water?

Meh.... just take your belongings out & burn down the entire house.

Always worked for me in the past....

I know a guy whose cousin became a piece of Weetabix because of mould spore.

Blast it with some sort of mould remover.

No with milk, I put water in the bowl after eating them to prevent the leftover weetabix solidifying to the side of the bowl.

Why didn't you just wash it and put it back in the cupboard?

The Weetabix has more than likely absorbed a drastic amount of the radiation from the Fukishama plant fallout cloud - this dust will contain a high dose of irraduim 123 ( and probably 456 as well) If I wer you I would Run to da Hills - or else Rob a Bank asap

Strangely enough, piss would kill mould as it contains urea which decomposes to ammonia and ammonia kills mould.


So yeah. Blast everything with piss.

I do that too, except I mix the water with washing up liquid, and then use an object called a "scourer" (many supermarkets sell these) in a circular fashion around the bowl , rinsing it out then using a towel like piece of cloth to remove any excess water. you should try it.

It's too late, once you breathe that stuff in, it's only a matter of time before you sectioned for hallucinating. Might be 15 years from now, but that mould is in your nervous system now. Mushrooms are a mould and LCD comes from them, peace be with you.

On a separate note, is mould taking over the world?

When I was a kid, you could find an apple butt or a piece of toast under your bed or sofa and the apple butt would be black and the toast stale and as hard as a rock. Nowadays though, they would both be consumed with mould with 24 hours. Fcuking mould spores will consume this planet some day, mark my words.

Also, isn't there an Italian doctor who believes all forms of cancer is in fact mould? Can't remember his name, most likely crackers but think he gave some lecture last year in the states and some doctors took interest in his theories. I am slightly inebriated here so .. merry Christmas.

Yes, mould is evil .. Erin Brockovich had mould in her gaff and it nearly killed her and she has great tits, so it nearly killed some great tits

Belief is never based on fact, any more than a mans words are based on a picture he likes to put beside his made up name.

OK, here's what you need to do to remove mould spores. Go to xtra vision and rent "time-machine" with mumumba sam in it. Copy the design of the machine and build it using the plastic cuttlery and paper dishes usually supplied to students. Go back in time to before you you made that stupid decision of not bothering your butt to wash up after yourself. Kick your own ass and piss in the bowl, to form ammonia, to prevent mould forming. Come back to room with healing wounds, to a lovely smell of piss. Light scented candle eat weetabix.

Its too late pet, you've probably inhaled some mould spores. That stuff is in your lungs for the rest of your life.

As others have said you should burn the room, possibly the entire street. Fcuk it just nuke the entire site from orbit, its the only way to be sure.

Aoifey!

There have been 3 mould filled bowls in my kitchen for 3 weeks. Chill out, it's grand.

In the good old days food used to go stale before it started to rot. Now it starts to rot as soon as it hits your mouth. May God have mercy on our souls.

It's mould terminology.

In the above instance, Run to da Hills is a poster who is known, among other things, for his Big Brother (original sense) beliefs.

Thanks. Also, even though I know this is OT, how do you "thank" a post?

Edit: Ignore that question.

Just wash all the bed sheets at 90 degrees. Spray everything else with bleach spray. Clean any mould you can find. Buy a load of disposable humidifiers and air out the room.

Had a discussion about this the other day. Back in the early 80s my mother extracted an uneaten ham sandwich from my sister's schoolbag about a week after it was put in there and it was crawling with maggots.

I took one out of my son's schoolbag yesterday after the best part of two weeks and the ham had only gone green.

Is there no meat in ham these days?
