  1. Check the DRIP PAN below the fridge....

    It may be full and the fungus is coming from there.

    Try to have less vapors and steam in the kitchen, use the hood vent, open windows, use an air conditiner or de-humidifier....this reduces the moisture in the air in general.

    Check the rest of the house.... are there any other sources of fungus? Corners? Under carpet?

    Check the inner temperature of the fridge with a thermostat...it may be broken and not cooling properly.

    Alos, try to place foods in the fridge as fast as posiible after shopping...do not wash or handle the foods too much. Wash before cooking or consumption. Wet food in fridge will spoil.


  2. u need to look at the tempature in ur fridge it should be on about 2_3 if ur temp ok and this isnt the problem then u need 2 get someone 2 look at it because its going 2 be cheaper to fix it or replace it than keep buying food .  also if the food u have in there for 3 _ 4 days has been opened then its time to chuck it anyway .  

  3. look in the back of your fridge. maybe it is growing back there and keeps coming through somehow.

  4. maybe make the tmep colder and buy a box of baking soda and keep in fridge to absorb odors etc
