The exterminating/moisture inspection company that told me about the

the house and kills any thing that is alive now. *I've considered going

Does anyone have experience with this?

I did the bleach trick. Use a vapor mask. The kind you use for
painting. I couldn't smell a thing. I still did an area at a time
with breaks.

Do you have plastic down? Do that if you don't. Also look at the
surronding ground. Try to get the water further away formt the
house. Add downspot extensions. The goal is drier ground in the
crawl. If nothing else works install a foundation vent fan with a
hunidistat outiside. You only want to run the fan when the outside
air has a lower humidity. Otherwise you are wasting your time. Just
blowing air arund under the crawl will not help much. You need to
move the saturated air out and replace it with drier air.
