    Condinsation in outlets
    Hi,

    In our exterior walls, by windows, we have condination in those outlets. What can be done for this? We noticed mold growing by one of the outlets.

    Thanks

    Contact a mold remediation contractor, or review this do it yourself guide:

    The Official Black Mold Removal Guide

    The mold is a result of the condensation, both need to be corrected.

    An electrician may be needed to replace any cable that has been infected with mold.
