This book is written by a consummate professional whose expertise is deepened by a profound personal connection to the subject. The author writes not just from a place of knowledge but from lived experience with the insidious effects of hidden mold, lending the work a powerful credibility.
It tackles a silent, often overlooked issue that may be a significant contributor to unexplained and spiraling health problems. For anyone concerned with the safety of their living environment, this alone makes the book an essential read.
From the very first chapter, the content is eye-opening—borderline shocking. I recognized many of the described indicators in my own past and present homes, stretching back to my earliest years. I was never aware of the potential danger. Reading through, I began to seriously reconsider past health issues that could very likely have been attributed to hidden mold exposure. The realization was alarming.
The book is immensely informative. It has not only raised my awareness but has made me significantly more cautious and observant. After finishing it, I firmly believe every homeowner should have a copy. It provides crucial knowledge on identifying what mold looks like, understanding what causes it, and learning what can—and should—be done.
One of the most valuable sections is the final chapter on Assessment and Planning Strategies. For anyone who does discover mold, this guide is indispensable for navigating the next steps safely and effectively.
It’s not a long read, but it is an invaluable one. As the author, Steven J. McLeod, aptly warns, “Treat mold like fire: don’t feed it or ignore it, and definitely don’t DIY with a spray bottle and blind optimism.”

Read it
If you’ve ever had lingering health issues that no one could explain, or if someone in your home always feels better when they’re away from the house, please read this book. It might be the missing piece. And honestly, just the peace of mind you gain is worth it. I’m really glad I picked it up, and I’m already applying what I learned around my own home.
