My in-laws have a NASTY house. It's dirty and disgusting and there is mold all over it. I am concerned with their health and my kids health from being up there. My husband refuses to do anything about it because he feels like he can't. But, seriously, this place is so gross and I am worried. Everything I read about mold is awful and I don't know what to do! Any REALISTIC ideas? I thought about nominating them for extreme homemakeover because that is what it is going to take, tearing the house DOWN!

You could get some written information about the dangers of mold and give it to them.
They may not respect your opinion, but written information from a professional saying the dangers of mold may help your case. They may not care about their own health, but the health of their grandkids may be enough for them to do something.
If you feel it's REALLY bad, tell your husband that you want his support to refuse to let your kids in that house until they fix it.

you need to think of your children first, DO NOT allow them to go there. You simply have to put your foot down on this one, it is their health and well being that you have to put first. Invite your in laws to come see the kids at your home, but don't allow them back in that house in the presence of all that mold, it can cause serious lung damage to those who are young and still growing.

Have you tried talking to your in-laws? Share the knowledge you have learned about mold with them.

Tell them that you'll clean their house, or just buy them cleaning supplies for christmas.
