its coming from somewhere.

Is there a leak upstairs/in the roof/above your room?

 

[Twistid 5,000+ posts]

I don't believe so. But then again my dorms have had 2 water mains burst within the past month, and half the first floor flooded both times. (I'm on the part of the first floor that did not flood)

if thats in your dorm and you don't have anywhere to go...thats a health hazard bro.

Get it checked out/reported and fixed ASAP.

Mold spores can cause cancer

That's what's growing in your lungs and sinuses. Write written complaints and include photos. Your health is in danger. Seriously.

Open a window, get some ventaliation and find the source of the water.

Is there an exhaust vent in the room?

There is no window to the bathroom, There is an exhaust in the bathroom but it does not work. I've made calls before but they do not come to fix it. (I work for Uncle Sam)

Then this could just be mold build up from lack of ventilation. When you shower the moisture builds up on the walls and ceiling and doesn't dry out because there is no where for it to go.

Uncle sam has deep pockets to sue if you develop some medical problems. Who owns and operates this building?

Local health dept would be interested in your compliants.

If this is work related you can also complain to OSHA.

Get that vent fan fixed.

clean that ish up and get a dehumidifier and also contact your school about it.

dude that stuff can be serious if it is toxic mold. You may really want to get a professional to come in and take a look.

lol the mold is slowly pwning you

you need to tear that drywall out. Another thing is to encapsulate that stuff. Repaint it with a moldicide paint.

get that fan fixed asap. Did you check it? alot of times they are just unplugged. If if your going to replace it, get the largest cfm fan that will fit in there.

And clean with a product made for mold.

Honestly, mold is bad. if thats the Stachybotrys kind, I would not stay there.
