I searched the web for sporicides many times, but never came across those two products until now. I'll get more information - Thanks! The experiment with colloidal copper is a result of a web page I found that listed various sporicides - some of them clearly toxic - but copper was among them. More research indicated copper is used as a fungicide in treating grapes, and by people who grow roses. Feeling somewhat grapey and rosy, I decided to give it a try. The archives have a few reports, one by Ken that indicated it might work but the ppm would be very low compared to cs. Another recent post by another contributor also showed positive results. I'm sorry I don't remember your name - your post was extremely helpful. It took a while to explore the behavior of copper in dw, and golly, the max ppm is really low. So I push it to get a coating of something on the cathode, then shake the rods so it goes into the dw and forms a light brown tint. This give both types of copper - ions and something else. I figure if one doesn't kill the spores, the other will. This is very effective on fabrics to kill the spores that give the terrible headaches. These were the hardest thing to kill. It also seems effective on the other types of mold that also make me too ill to work. The tenants downstairs live a normal life, and their fabrics generate a constant supply of new spores. These drift up through the floor and cracks between the floor and the walls, even though I have done my best to seal all the cracks with bathroom caulk. The spores create severe problems, but constant spraying and mopping seems to kill them for a while. So finally, there is some progress. I am hanging on the edge with my fingernails - but that's all I need. One tiny crack, one glimmer of hope, and I will make it bigger so more light can come in. For everyone. That's what it is all about. God Bless all of you. Best Regards, Mike Monett -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
