Feeling worse at home? It might not be “just mold.” In this episode, Juanique talks with Mike Fisher (Vital Home Solutions—aka the mold dog guy) about the REAL environmental drivers of CIRS and chronic symptoms. We break down why actinomycetes and endotoxins often outweigh mold, how to lower your total toxin load without wasting money, and exactly what to clean first for the biggest impact.
What you’ll learn
Why CIRS isn’t only about mold (think actinomycetes & endotoxin producers)
The “low-hanging fruit” that moves the needle fast: toilet tanks, window tracks, bathroom overflows, dusty HVAC rooms
Safe, simple chemistry for sensitives: soap + water for mold removal; hypochlorous acid or alcohol for bacteria
How to use negative pressure (shop-vac exhausting outdoors) so you don’t re-aerosolize dust
Practical tips for mattresses, pets, sheets, drains, and daily maintenance
Why calming the nervous system matters as much as cleaning
