I guess it’s normal for most people to wake up in the morning and dig the “sleepy men” out of the corner of their eyes, but I’ve noticed that it’s a day-long habit for me now. Also, my cat and dog both always have eye booger build up through out the day that they didn’t have before (and no it’s not the brown tears that animals often get, I know the difference.) My brother also stayed with us for a few months and said that he noticed his dog had the same problem the whole time they were here.

He kept telling me that he thought we had a mold problem – we moved into our house a year ago (it’s a new home) and had it inspected for both mold and chinese drywall and were told there was neither. Also, I’ve lived in a moldy apartment before and experienced all the sickness and symptoms that mold causes and haven’t experienced any of that here in this house.

Other than the eye boogers, there’s no other symptoms that I’m aware of.

Anyone have any suggestions on what could be causing it? We’re just really curious, since it’s affecting all of us, people and animals included.
