(This has been witnessed). Great ventilation with a ceiling fan and this room is at the end of the house. No issues and only use RO water for them.

Damp cloth works great. I'm glad that this is not contagious at least. Thanks for the info on DKS as I've only read a bit about the condition on "Tom's Big Spider's" website.</p></blockquote><p></p>
