Crawl Space Repair - Up close on the wood under your home

This is a great picture, for one thing it is very hard to get a decent photo without the flash making it worthless. All the black stuff is probably mold. I say probably because I'm not a biologist. But if you subscribe to the "looks like a duck and quacks like duck...must be a duck" theory, then you will most likely agree with me. Imagine the damage that this stuff does to your home as it spreads. If you lower the humidity and get rid of the water, the mold won't grow.
