Are there any laws to force landlords to fix a mold problem?
There are no Federal, State or local laws that pertain to mold cleanup. There are laws, though, that do regulate structural and plumbing problems. Landlords are required to maintain the structure and plumbing of your rental unit. Contact Fort Wayne Neighborhood Code Enforcement at 311 (if your rental unit is in the City of Fort Wayne) to report structural or plumbing problems. Mold will not grow if there is no water.
