Mildew in whole neighborhood

[valdav]

I was driving through a neighborhood and noticed mildew growing on the outside of probably 60 homes. They were built about 10 years ago. Could this mildew be caused because the homes are not insulated behind the walls? I was told they had Tyvek wrap installed when they were built. If it is caused by moisture, is there a sealing paint that can stop the mildew eyesore? Thanks Guys.

Hi,

I doubt that it's caused by an insulation problem. Algae growing on the outside of homes is common here. Have them treat the exteriors with JoMax.

Nuff Said,
