A Closer Look at Mold
It is important to understand how mold comes to form and the effects it can have on your property and body. Without solid mold remediation services, mold will only continue to cause you big headaches (figuratively and literally). Let’s take a closer look at mold and the problems that it can cause.
Microscopic mold spores can be found pretty much everywhere. They can be found indoors and outdoors, which can make the removal process difficult and tedious. It is almost impossible to completely remove every single spec of mold in your home or environment. These spores can also travel through the air, through clothes, shoes, pets, and in other ways.
When it comes to mold remediation services, there is a set process that must be followed. This is to ensure safety and effectiveness in removing mold spores. This is where we come in! Removing mold yourself is an unnecessary hassle, one we can take care of for you and your home.
Facts About Mold
There are a number of things that people don’t know about mold. These can be very useful in understanding the scope of your situation and how to solve it. Consider these facts:
- Mold spores are microscopic and float through the air without being noticed.
- Mold can enter the home through doors, heating systems, windows, clothing, and even pets.
- Spores tend to linger in areas with high moisture. Mold can really start to grow into large colonies when exposed to water.
- Mold tends to have a strong, musty odor, which can be a good way to pinpoint mold in your home.
- The temperature in your house can actually encourage mold growth in some cases. It’s recommended to keep your indoor humidity below 45% if possible.
- Before any mold remediation services can begin, all sources of moisture and water must be identified and taken care of. If left untreated, mold will only return over time.
