ALBANY - Ara Powell said the dark substance on her bedroom window sill, is mold.

"I used to clean it up all the time, not knowing what it was, and then I realized that it was mold," she said.

Even though she keeps cleaning it off, she said it still comes back. That's not the only place in her house that worries her.

"It's a death trap. And I'm faced with sickness and illness because of this mold this toxic mold," Powell said.

Powell has lived with her children in the three bedroom townhouse, in the North Albany homes section of Albany Public Housing, for years. She said Thursday that persistent mold in a number of places including a downstairs closet, are making her family sick.
