There is no such thing as "toxic mould" or "toxic mildew." For the most part, the notion of "toxic mould" was a creation of over imaginative journalists, who sacrificed objectivity for a "good yarn." Generally speaking where one discovers mould or mildew in their residence, normal everyday housekeeping procedures are all that is necessary to correct the problem. Occasionally, where there is a catastrophic water loss, or flooding, more extensive water damage remediation is required. Very seldom is evacuation necessary. The process can be slow, so to speed things up get a friend to phone into your local TV news and tell them what it's all about. The media just loves this sort of thing and it will make others aware this could happen to them as well. This should get you some help a lot quicker than going through all the red tape and poor excuses.
