Hello,

I'm Mike Pugliese; I specialize in mold litigation, linking the compounds and elements (fungi, mold, and bacteria) in contaminated environments to the direct causation of disease within the human body. I have appeared as Expert Witness in mold litigation cases on a national and international basis.

I have spent thousands of hours in mold contaminated environments around the country and abroad performing environmental testing, mold remediation, protocol introduction, insurance recovery, litigation, and settlements for all types of water damage, mold claims, and restoration projects. 

As a consumer advocate I have recovered millions of dollars in settlements for homeowners from insurance companies, and negligent entities unwilling to pay claims. I have spent three years working in the areas damaged by hurricanes Jeanne, Wilma, Rita, and Katrina.

I have made guest appearances on over 300 radio talk shows with syndicated audiences reaching upwards of over 2 million listeners. My books are in the libraries of most major universities, and the majority of public libraries within the United States, including book distribution and sales from Japan to New Zealand.

This website will help answer your mold questions and direct you to other sites that can help you with other related mold issues.

Please feel free to contact me personally at anytime, best wishes always.

Sincerely,

Michael A. Pugliese    

When the Country of Bermuda had its Police officers sick dying and suffering from "Sick Building Syndrome", they called on the expertise of "Mike the Mold Guy" to perform the environmental investigation.

These are some of the questions I get asked all the time, I hope this helps:

Q:   Can mold really make you sick?

A:   The latest  medical data clearly state Mold has be linked Asthma, COPD, Brain / Nervous Disorders, Cancer and even  
Death.... so "Yes".

Q:    Will Bleach kill mold?

A:    No, most household molds are chlorine resistant. And if bleach killed mold, the insurance companies would not pay
out over 1 Billion Dollars per year in mold claims. So the answer is for the most part,  is "No", it won't do what you
want it to really do.

Q:    What do you use to kill the mold when you do a Mold remediation project?

A:    I have used a lot of products, but I prefer  "BioCide 100" and "Mold Bomb"   to see these products go to:
       www.BioCideLabs.com

Q:   If I think I'm sick from Mold what can I do, and who can help me, or where can I get tested?

A:   BioSign Labs and EHAP Labs are National laboratories that can test your blood, tissue, or urine for abnormal levels 
of mold, or mycotoxins in your body. Find further details at: www.EHAPLABS.com or www.BioSignLabs.com
