No, really:
The floor is standard linoleum. This started more than one year ago. I can’t remove this “stain” by standard cleaners like sp*ic and span, Lysol with bleach, or a scouring pad (SOS pad). I thought at first it was perhaps some fungi/bacterial growth but I don’t think that is it. The linoleum is old so perhaps this is just a deterioration discoloration. I have fluorescent lights in the kitchen.
At present the 'stain' is covered with a rug, previously when not covered the “stain” was lighter in color, it became a darker color and spread when covered by the rug. Evil, as everyone knows, flourishes more in the dark! It would be very exciting if is this was some evil alien disease or growth that will eventually devour and destroy the entire Earth, but I don’t want to get overexcited about this possibility, however much I want it to be so.
Any ideas what this is - anyone?
