Re: Mold in bath ceiling
Oh, I love "Holmes" and rarely miss it. The guy thinks the moisture collects in there as I have no vent fan of any kind, and because of my health problems I keep my bedroom dark as night. Thankfully, I always have my ceiling fan on 24/7, As I mentioned in an earlier writing I looked and fo...
