Fogging Away Mold Problems May Save Billions for Property Owners “Mold rolls over when it sees this coming,” jokes Brian J. Kalamanka of Modec, Inc., speaking of, Modec Decon Formulation, a product developed to neutralize anthrax toxins. Delivered in a foam, this solutions kills anthrax bacteria and the bacterial toxins that make it dangerous. The molds, and the mycotoxins these molds emit, that grow in building materials and threaten people’s health are so easily killed by, Modec Decon Formulation, that it can be delivered by a fogging device. The normal procedure for mold cleanup is removal of all infected materials. Workers must wear HAZMAT suits and work in areas isolated from the environment. Materials are treated as toxic waste. The process is dangerous, costly and time consuming. In the worst cases, buildings with all contents have been completely demolished and hauled away as toxic waste. Modec Decon Formulation, seems to offer an inexpensive alternative to removal of materials that is safer for people, pets and environment. Results of testing in Florida led Kalamanka to speculate that mold infested building materials that have not lost structural integrity might be saved. Air samples taken before and after fogging suggest that, Modec Decon Formulation, kills all mold, mold spores and mycotoxins, in building materials leaving them resistant to further mold or bacteria growth.
