The presence of fungi (MOLD) within buildings poses unique challenges
for owners, occupants and insurance carriers alike. Building
owners are obligated to protect occupants and to mitigate damages
and mold proliferation; building occupant paranoia often results
from media headlines and misinformation; and insurance carriers
must wrestle with property loss claims that result from water
losses.
