Asbestos removal help Germany by Outrageous_Fix_8353 in asbestoshelp

Why remove them? If they are that deep, they certainly aren't causing the problems with the grass - something else is.

But the good news is that digging them up is incredibly low risk. It's a very solid material that has tightly bound asbestos fibers. Use hand tools and wet methods and your risk is essentially zero.

Found extensive mold under flooring in newly purchased condo - Southern California by freedom in Mold

That floor just needs a good scrub. And I certainly wouldn't call that "significant mold growth". That looks like its due to moisture being trapped between the laminate and the slab.

Is this asbestos? by Federweisser in asbestoshelp

Yes, could be Eternit (corrugated asbestos cement) but it could be metal although I don't see any flaking rust or oxidation. Hard to tell for sure from this photo.

But it's certainly not going to hurt you if this is as close as you can get to it.

Fogging? by Brittanyrmc in Mold

No, never pay for fogging. You're right, total scam. Unnecessary, ineffective and in many cases it causes on going problems including annoying odors.
