Leviticus 14:48

46 Anyone who enters the house during any of the days that it is closed up will be unclean until evening.

47 And anyone who sleeps in the house or eats in it must wash his clothes.

If, however, the priest comes and inspects it, and the mildew has not spread after the house has been replastered, he shall pronounce the house clean, because the mildew is gone.

49 He is to take two birds, cedar wood, scarlet yarn, and hyssop to purify the house;

50 and he shall slaughter one of the birds over fresh water in a clay pot.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
