Dry Rot Fungus Problem

Dry Rot, the decay of timber by the fungus Serpula lacrymans, is the most serious timber decay problem in buildings in the UK, the rest of Europe, the USA, Canada, and other temperate regions. When environmental conditions permit, the dry rot fungus decays timber components and without remedial action considerable structural damage can ensue. Damage may be considerable and extend far beyond structural elements to valuable artifacts such as ornamental plasterwork and timber paneling. The unique ability of the dry rot fungus to penetrate the non-timber elements of buildings, such as masonry and plaster, in the form of mycelial strands, and to transport water through those strands, allows the fungus to spread considerable distances from its point of origin.

The conditions for growth and development of the fungus are usually present in locations within the building that are not immediately accessible. The detection of rot is therefore difficult and assessment of the extent to which it has developed usually involves disruptive investigation. Such disruptive investigation can involve damage to valuable features.

The current procedures in common use for the detection of timber rot in buildings involve visual inspection and probing, sometimes supplemented by moisture measurement usually using an electronic meter. Further investigation might involve the uplifting of floors removal of plasterwork paneling or other building components in an attempt to see how far the condition has spread. Such investigation is in itself damaging to the building.

The best non-invasive way to investigate buildings for hidden dry rot problems is the use of Fugenex dry rot sensors.

 What is a Dry Rot Sensor?

A dry rot sensor is a simple to install treated wooden dowel that changes color, from blue to yellow, in the presence of incipient Dry Rot.

What does it do for me? A dry rot sensor allows you to tell if Dry Rot is present at its earliest stages, in timber or masonry, of a wall, ceiling, or floor giving you an early warning that action is required before your building is damaged.

How is it installed? By drilling an 7mm diameter hole to a depth of 100mm in the 'at risk' timber or masonry.

How does it work? The blue detector dye, that is vacuum impregnated into the wooden dowel, reacts to the chemical that Dry Rot produces - oxalic acid - at very low levels, turning the dye to yellow.

 Bleach Mold Myth: "While bleach is often recommended for remediation of surface mold on wood, our [university research study] results illustrate that the treatment does not eliminate the surface microflora," is the conclusion of the Oregon State University study of the effects of chlorine bleach on mold growth on Douglas fir wood [an important timber crop in the state of Oregon]. The research study was conducted by Professor Jeffrey Morrell, Dept. of Wood Science, Oregon State University, as assisted by Adam Taylor [graduate research assistant] and Camille Freitag [Senior Research Associate], as published in Forest Products Journal, 54:4, 2004.   Mold Terms and Mold Terminology
