Hey neighbours,
Are you among the many people in NZ battling mould in their homes? Did you tick yes to the census question about having a patch of mould bigger than an A4 piece of paper? If so, we'd love to talk to you.


We're working on an article for Homed to find out when you need to worry about mould and the best ways to tackle it. If you'd like to be involved, let us know the scale of the mould you're dealing with in the comments below, or email us at homed@stuff.co.nz and we'll be in touch.


And thanks! We're looking forward to hearing from you :)
