biological infestation Explanation: Among others, fungus infestation. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 mins (2014-11-28 11:55:48 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Active infestation is somewhat self-explanatory. This typically refers to the infestation (primarily of wood structural members) by either an insect or a biological agent. Insect infestation is noticeable in forms ranging from small pellets found on floors or window sills in the case of termites, to obvious holes bored into wood members by certain beetles. Evidence of biological infestation often includes a patchy either dark- or light-colored “mold” or “mildew” which may also be accompanied by a distinct odor. http://www.deloroproperties.com/2009/12/your-termite-report-... ccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 13 mins (2014-11-28 11:57:31 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Biological Infestation Biological infestation, be it fungal or animal, can be kept under control by good housekeeping. A regular cleaning programme coupled with suitable environmental conditions should virtually eliminate the possibility of mould growth on a collection. Good cleaning and good habits, i.e. no food or drink in collection areas, will also significantly reduce the risk of insect or rodent infestation. Regular cleaning removes insect pests, their eggs and larvae and the scaps of organic matter they feed on. Maintaining humidity levels below 60% will virtually eliminate the possibility of fungal growth. http://www.slv.vic.gov.au/latrobejournal/issue/latrobe-45/t1... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 16 mins (2014-11-28 11:59:59 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Biological infestation from molds / fungus / bacteria / etc. degrade Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) where many folks health is directly affected; http://www.rebuildnewjersey.com/nj-house-demolition-guide-an... |
