<br />Residential Lease Agreement Exhibit B <br /> <br />Absorbs water but not <br />washable <br />Beds, sofas and <br />other furniture. <br /> <br />These items may have to be discarded. <br />Or, try to save by vacuuming well and allowing to air <br />out. If there is no odor it may be okay. Mold can come <br />back, so watch for any mold growth or mold related <br />health problems. Discard the item if you suspect mold <br />is growing inside or outside the item. <br /> <br /> <br />Should I paint over mold? <br />No. Don’t paint or caulk over mold. The mold will grow under the paint and the paint will peel. <br /> <br />Must landlords tell tenants about mold? <br />Yes! In 2005, the Washington State legislature approved Engrossed Senate Bill (ESB) 5049 (See <br />especially Section 2.12) (http://www.leg.wa.gov/pub/billinfo/2005- <br />06/Htm/Bills/Senate%20Bills/5049.E.htm) that requires landlords to notify their tenants about <br />mold. <br /> <br />Who can I contact for more information? <br />For more information, see the DOH Web page or contact a staff member below: <br />Laura White (360) 236-3090 <br />Paul Marchant (360) 236-3363 <br /> <br />For persons with disabilities this document is available on request in other formats.
