The problem with mold

According to the EPA, mold and mildew spores often occur harmlessly in nature, but they can create an extremely hazardous situation inside your home or facility. These spores float through the air unseen and stay dormant until they find a welcoming habitat.

When they get indoors, they can come to rest on practically any surface and then simply wait for good sprouting conditions.Mold can survive in a wide range of temperatures, but it loves to settle down in areas that:

• Stay damp and/or humid for at least a couple of days
• Provide “food” for mold (wood, bread, cotton, etc.)
• Are low in natural light (this is a preference, not a requirement)

No matter how clean you keep your home, a small pocket of humid air near a damp wall can be enough to allow mold to sprout and flourish.

Unfortunately, mold can have significant negative effects on health: some people are allergic to it, while previously non-allergic people may develop an allergy if exposed to high concentrations of mold in the air.

Asthma attacks can also be triggered by too many mold spores, and people with suppressed immune systems may be at risk of developing serious fungal infections.

Visible mold is only the tip of the iceberg

Mold cleanup may seem simple at first, but it goes deeper than you might expect. No matter how much bleach you use, the roots of the mold can hide untouched inside the floor or the carpet fibers. Your mold problem could come right back!
