| pubmed-article:19039719 | pubmed:abstractText | Mould and dampness, both long known indoor problems, may cause several health effects. During the last years, this topic has gained increasing importance in the field of environmental hygiene at the Bremen local public health office and has become a major focus of the work. The analysis of the advisory service for private persons has shown: mould and dampness are relevant health and environmental problems in private homes. Data from a questionnaire-based study revealed that mainly people with low social status, especially those with low income, request for information and guidance. This indicates the need for free advice for people with low income. | lld:pubmed |
