Stomach ailments and sinus infections in our house continue unabated. Then a ferocious smell consumed our bedroom and we're convinced there is a mold problem. The plumbers arrive with their equipment and find moisture, but no signs of "serious mold."
There is a discussion of a possible dead rodent in the ceiling, "Wait ten days or so for it to de-compose, nothing we can do."
Then our neighbors ask if we have covers on the cisterns?
“Cisterns, as in water drums from biblical times?”
"Yes, you don't drink the water in the upstairs bathroom do you?"
"All our bathrooms are upstairs?"
"No, you've got to use bottled water. The water is rain water and there are no covers on them so birds bathe in them..."
But they've cured the plague, right?
You should only drink the water from the main (usually kitchen) tap. But I think the neighbour is making it up about the rain water - unless you live in a hyper-eco house.
ReplyDeleteCourse even the kitchen water will taste horrible. Come up here and drink real water.
