Americas Watchdog & its Homeowners Consumer Center have been leading a national investigation of imported toxic Chinese drywall for over four months, it is now expanding the investigation to include Texas, Arizona & every other US State. "It is no longer a question of what states have it, its now a question of what states have toxic Chinese drywall in the largest number of homes." Toxic Chinese drywall corrodes copper and other metals, and may cause severe health issues with homeowners, and their families. If a homeowner suspects they might have toxic Chinese drywall in their home, they should contact the Homeowners Consumer Center immediately at 866-714-6466, or contact them via their web site at Http://HomeownersConsumerCenter.com.

(PRWEB) May 7, 2009 -- Americas Watchdog and its Homeowners Consumer Center have been leading in a national investigation of imported toxic Chinese in Florida, and numerous other states. "It's no longer a question of what US States have toxic Chinese drywall, its more like how many homes are affected. Our biggest worries right now aside from Florida, is Texas. We also think homeowners in Arizona, California, Nevada, Louisiana, the Pacific Northwest, Colorado, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland, Hawaii, & the Mid West should be on the look out for this product."

The group is now including remodeled homes, that could be affected. The time line for new, or remodeled homes that could have toxic Chinese drywall is 2001 to present. At its peak Chinese drywall was being used in new homes, or home remodeling between 2004 & 2008. Toxic Chinese drywall corrodes copper & other metals, and has been associated severe medical issues, such as unexplained headaches, nose bleeds, rashes, allergy type reactions, children being rushed to the ER, because they cannot breath, etc. Americas Watchdog has created a very informative web site called the Chinese Drywall Complaint Center. This web site has the most current list of indicators, of how to determine if a home or condominium might have the toxic product. the web site is located at Http://ChineseDrywallComplaintCenter.com.

So what should homeowners be on the lookout for a home built or remodeled between 2001 & 2008, with respect to toxic Chinese drywall, in Texas, Arizona, or any other state?

First of all, most homeowners who have toxic Chinese drywall in their homes are sick. They, or their family members, complain of upper respiratory problems, nose bleeds, severe allergy type symptoms, rashes, eye irritation, etc. One interesting note: homeowners frequently say, "I go away from my home or condominium for a few days, and I feel better, or my kids feel better. We come back home, and we, or some of us get sick again."

What are the easy symptoms to discover if Chinese drywall is in your home?

 
  • Look in your attic or crawl space and see if the exposed drywall says made in China on it.
  • Check your electrical receptacle boxes to see if the copper ground wires have turned black. Instructions: simply remove your electrical receptacle face plate. There should be a bright shiny copper colored ground wire going from the receptacle to the ground. If the copper ground wire has turned black, immediately call the Homeowners Consumer Center at 866-714-6466, or contact the group via their web site at Http://HomeownersConsumerCenter.Com
  • Homeowners may have noticed electrical devices like TV sets, computers, micro wave LID displays, refrigerator coils, or electrical stove top elements that have failed, once or even repeatedly. Light bulbs might be burning out at a very high rate, because of the corrosive nature of the gasses emitted by the toxic Chinese drywall.
If you have one or more of the health symptoms, combined with blackened, or charred electrical receptacle copper ground wires, electrical failures, or other copper corrosion, you should cal the Homeowners Consumer Center immediately at 866-714-6466, or contact the group via its web site at Http://HomeownersConsumerCenter.com.
"When will President Obama acknowledge he has dropped the ball on this national disaster, that because of the health issues will become a national tragedy?"

Note to homeowners in Florida, Texas all other Gulf States, Virginia, Nevada, California & New Orleans. "The Obama Administration, the US Congress & the US Consumer Products Safety Commission are not taking the toxic Chinese drywall disaster seriously. We fear this national disaster, involving 100,000's of US homes, will evolve into a national tragedy, with homeowners or their families suffering permanent health damage, cancer, or premature death, due to exposure to imported toxic Chinese drywall. If President Obama wants an immediate economic stimulus plan, rebuilding, or restoring 100,000's of US homes, with an emergency Congressional disaster relief fund, would do just that. To the national press, come to South Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, Virginia, and we will be more than happy to introduce you to this disaster. Anderson Cooper, Brian Williams, Katie Couric, Charles Gibson, Greta Van Susteren, you all really need to see for yourselves. Imported toxic Chinese drywall is literally the worst US environmental disaster ever, and you are not covering it. These innocent victims need your help. This disaster is no different than a huge hurricane, tornado, or earthquake."

Americas Watchdog & its Homeowners Consumers Center are trying to educate the nation about this disaster, and they are doing everything possible to help the victims with an immediate & massive federal response & emergency relief fund.

For more information contact the Homeowners Consumer Center at 866-714-6466 or contact the group via its web site at Http://HomeownersConsumerCenter.com.

"Americas Watchdog & its Homeowners Consumer Center will not back down on the toxic Chinese drywall issue, nor will we turn our backs on 100,000's of innocent US homeowners living in homes that could kill them, or their families."
