"There should be no mould, mildew of fungus in the air. This is a particular problem in T&T and buildings should be designed so that no surface is ever chronically moist," Fojo pointed out. A particular problem in T&T, he said, is that retaining and exterior walls and floor slabs are not designed and detailed properly causing mould, mildew and fungus to grow, sometimes on the inside of walls, cupboards, bathrooms, walk-in-closets and in carpeting. Detrimental health consequences, Fojo warned, can be significant.
