76 | She Lost Her Home to Toxic Mold-Now Her Mold Dog Finds What Inspectors Miss with Lindsay Reeves

Description

When a family moves into a beautiful rental home and everyone starts falling apart except the one person who's barely ever there, something is seriously wrong. Lindsay Reeves watched her children deteriorate, her adopted son get sick, and herself become a shell of who she was, all while dozens of doctors never once mentioned the word mold.


I sat down with Lindsay, the co-founder of Safe Mold Inspections of NWA and owner of Hope the Mold Dog, to talk about how her family's severe mold exposure led her from victim to advocate. After being forced to abandon their home and nearly everything in it, Lindsay and her husband Blake built an investigative mold inspection business that pairs detailed building science expertise with the nose of a trained mold-detection dog. What Hope can find in the walls of a home that no air sample or visual inspection would ever catch is honestly incredible, and every family dealing with unexplained chronic illness needs to hear this.


Key Takeaways:

  • The reason everyone in your family can be sick from the same home and have completely different symptoms
  • What actually happens inside a home inspection when a mold dog is involved and why it's not what you'd expect
  • The one thing Hope can smell that has absolutely nothing to do with visible mold growth
  • Why a one-hour air sample inspection may be the biggest waste of money in your healing journey
  • The two mistakes families make after getting a mold report that keep them stuck and sick
  • How to know whether you need a mold dog, a different inspector, or both

To Healing,

Aubree
