It seems to be less costly than other proven method by a wide margin.I don’t want to “sweep it under the rug” and make sure the mold is removed for good.

The current owner moved across the county for work and it seems he's hoping that this will all get swept under the rug so that we can close.I'm strongly leaning toward not closing until this is resolved.What would you do?

I use a Rumba at home.The lower priced units are louder (whistling noise), and may not have as good of a guidance code as the higher priced units, making them run longer over the same space.The make quiet ones with better guidance systems (extra cost).The ones that do not empty their own trash, will just shut down and sit there, verbally telling you the bin is full.If they get caught up on the edge of a rug, or a sheet hanging down from the bed, they are disabled until a human comes and rescues them.Some do carpets, some do tile floors, some do both.Mission critical cleaning with no human present, seems like it has some risk.Co-cleaning with someone present seems like it works better, due to having someone to rescue it from the dreaded sheet edge hanging off the bed, or the T-shirt on the floor getting stuck in a wheel--and then it's Rumba Code xxxxxx Please Fix Me...For home use, it works great, and the whistle is less loud than a commercial vacuum cleaner.If your lifestyle is more on the messy side, with clutter all over, this is probably not a solution, because it needs to access the floor and cannot move things.For convenience (they dock to charge and memorize where they are at) have one on each floor.Just my 2 cents.

@Mike Lambert I’ll add that while crime in Mexico is often exaggerated, Costa Rica has the opposite going on: there’s a lot more crime there than people realize and it gets swept under the rug.
