We have a mess at our home..we recently had bamboo floors put down on our concrete slab, a wood glue was put down before the bamboo...no moisture barrier, just the glue...2 weeks later, the bamboo started buckling, and we could see mold on top of the glue under the wood...so we just had all the bamboo ripped up, b/c it was all warped and ruined from moisture..they came back the next day and scraped up all the glue (we had to live w/ the horrible smell of the glue for a night, which was awful)...but now, I have a layer of glue residue/dust all over everything in my house....i've tried glass cleaner and lysol 4 in 1, and i still have somewhat of a sticky feeling on everything...anyone have any ideas of how to get this off??
