SAVANNAH, Ga. () – An Army couple moved out of their home at Hunter Army Airfield (HAA) because of a mold problem, a problem they said staff here could not adequately solve.

Hannah Blondo and her husband, a helicopter technician at HAA, moved into new their home on the south side Saturday after she said airfield staff refused to take care of the conditions in their former home on base.

The couple transferred to hunter last October and said they immediately noticed peeling wallpaper which exposed black mold.

“The more we peeled away the paint, the bigger we saw the issue was,” said Blondo.

Blondo said staff patched over the mold only for the wallpaper to quickly peel off again.

She said the mold made her sick and caused an allergic reaction, and claimed a doctor even diagnosed her condition.

“I’m not going to live off of Benadryl and Epi-pen all the time,” she said.

She said when she took her doctor’s note to airfield staff, they advised her to get an EpiPen, something she says is not an acceptable solution.

“I specifically went by myself to the housing office and said, hey, this is what’s happening, and this is unacceptable because I can’t even walk in my own home or even be in my own kitchen without getting an allergic reaction.”

She said even with proof staff told her there was nothing more they could do.

“You’re telling me that I’m showing you that I’m allergic to this mold and have two medical records from the hospital and one from a minute clinic literally saying this could be because of the mold,” said Blondo. “How can you tell me that this is not enough evidence?”

After nine months, the couple left their home in the base and moved into the south side residence.

Blondo said she believes HAA is breaking the law.

“We have tenant rights to like in a clean and safe environment, and I’m not even in a safe environment? How can you tell me you’re not breaking the law of the tenant rights in Georgia?”

Blondo said she and her husband will rent out the home until his three-year contract is up, and in the meanwhile the couple is also trying to get compensation from HAA for the inconvenience.

has reached out to HAA for a response, and a spokesperson told us they are looking into the situation and will provide a comment soon.
