Here, there's a lot of mold in Austin.

There's still humidity and high heat.

In Arizona, there's also a ton of mold.

People think there's not.

I see some of the worst mold toxicity in Arizona of anywhere.

Because they are so dry, they don't have a natural, like, they're not used to it.

So then if you get a leak in your house, it ravages you.

But also, all that desert sand used to be underwater.

So if you sampled the desert sand, there's ancient molds that have been there for

who knows, thousands or millions of years.

So often when people have big mold toxic exposure events in Arizona, it's like after a windstorm or a haboob, they have this big exposure.

And when they get their mycotoxin and their blood and all their testing done, the same species of mold in their dust is the same that's in their blood almost unanimously.

So it's kind of like an everywhere problem.

So mold is kind of like a, it's sort of like the new lime.

It's like a thing that if you're sick and you can't figure it out why it's like a, it's like a common culprit, but because it's everywhere, it's way more prevalent.

You're not like, it wasn't like through a bug bite or something or a mosquito or a tick or something.

If you look at the search volume of anything mold related, it looks like a hockey stick.

It's like the Nvidia stock.

It is going crazy.

So the mold awareness is going up.
