Crews have been called in several times to clean it up, but people living there say the mold keeps coming back.

"You wash it out and it comes back. So, evidently, they are not getting it out, whatever it is," says resident Ruth Ann White.

We tried several times to speak with the property managers about the problem, but they either ran away or told us they did not have a comment.

By law, if the tenants can prove the mold is effecting their health and the management does not take care of the problem, there is a national precedent for them to sue.
