What if the way you’ve been dealing with mould is actually making your home — and your health — worse?

In this episode of The Healthy Home Show, Charlie speaks with Jeff Charlton, an environmental hygienist and founder of Building Forensics, whose extraordinary career has taken him from global disaster recovery zones to UK homes plagued by damp and mould.

Jeff shares the truth about what really happens when we “kill” mould, why dead spores can be even more toxic than live ones, and how our quick fixes — from bleach sprays to fogging — often spread contamination rather than remove it.

You’ll learn:

Why mould should be removed, not “killed”

The difference between visible mould and hidden contamination

How to identify and fix the real source of moisture

Simple, practical steps to make your home safer and healthier

This episode is a wake-up call for homeowners, tenants and professionals who want to understand how the buildings we live in can either support or sabotage our wellbeing.
