Sheetrock over the "Problem" is GOING to lead to a Future BIO-HAZARD and Quarantine Situation. GUARANTEED!

Re: That Old House Smell


There's a product called Un-Smoke that I've used for years on fire/water restos and to help get rid of musty smelling rooms, basements, and attics. Stuff works great. My house was built in 1924 and had some of the same problems.
