My doctor (Dr. Jill Carnahan) is a great resource and her articles always have citations. Here are some article with citations that might be helpful:

Melissa: So sad. Hope you and your family are feeling better. This same thing happened to a family with a new house across the street from us (NC near Research Triangle Park). Took them a couple of years to figure it out.

As a retired biotech CEO, I’ve run lab companies so this is something I was already in tune with. I had been alert from beginning since these new houses are ultra Leed Silver and super airtight. However, after the neighbor’s problem, I became more concerned about our own house…and had more time since I was writing children’s books full time at home.

I had the technician who does semi-annual inspections (AC and heat) open up the main air duct and let me look in. I found mold starting to grow in a barely visible spot (which he had missed). Occurred at the same time of Covid outbreak. So, I ended up buying an expensive ultraviolet light device. Contacted the CEO from the company and validated it was the real deal. Installed. Six months later no mold. Bought another device for downstairs AC/heat system. For twice-a-year inspections since then, there has been no mold in any of the air ducts. One could argue it helped during Covid too. The technician has sold these units to a lot of his other clients.

Sorry about your travail. May you and your family be well.

BTW: Love your site!!! You’ve put in an amazing amount of time to create such extraordinary value. I’m writing books with 4 of 7 my grandkids and will use your site for our research going forward.

Grew suspicious about current state of NYC trad pub and opted a year ago to go indie. Working with an amazing self pub leader specializing in kidlit (April Cox, Self Publishing Made Simple) who recently had a period where she’d trained 6 of 10 Amazon bestselling authors for Christmas pic books.

About to publish our first MG epic fantasy…cross between Narnia spirituality and Tolkien battles between good and evil. I’ve written/published NF Amer hist books so I had custom maps made like in my past books so kids can follow the journey with more than a single map in front or back.

Additionally, I’ve completed our first late chapter book with Chinese granddaughter—fairies from around the world train together—and am now working on getting it illustrated. I’m also about to launch my writing with kids website—to help parents and grandparents engage via creative writing—and will link to your site since good writing begins with good reading 🙂
