Question from Kelly

Hi,

I saw this story in the AP wire and thought you and your readers would be interested in it. Thankfully, I live in an old house, so I can sidestep a lot of these issues but another thing to think about for those in newer residences.

Chinese drywall poses potential risks

Kelly

Debra’s Answer

Here is another article on the same subject: Florida to test air in homes with Chinese drywall.

The articles say that drywall is making residents sick, but only drywall imported from China from 2004-2008, and the problem seems to be concentrated in Florida. So this isn’t all drywall, only this specific drywall.
