After water damage comes another problem when the affected area by water damage is not properly clean. The most common result of water or flood damage is mold. Mold is not something we should take for granted, it can trigger asthma and cause illness. We often assume that mold can’t harm us or it’s just a common dirt found in our house. Mold rapidly spreads and is very difficult to remediate. It can spread within 24 hours, mold should never be ignored. There are some cases where a home, business or even an entire complex has to be demolished and condemned because of mold.
It is important to call a mold remediation and mold removal company that can attend to your problem promptly. Mold should be handled as soon as you discovered it to prevent it from spreading and causing bigger problems. Once in awhile it is important to check our house for mold growth. Here are some tips to prevent mold growth:
-
Locate the source of excess moisture and humidity to eliminate it
-
If you found an excess moisture, check your roof for leaks, pipes if it has damages and your air conditioning unit
Once the humidity level reaches 50% there’s a big chance for mold growth. There are mold that are not harmful but there are also mold that should be treated and remediated as soon as possible.The few mold spores we breath in while outdoors are not dangerous, but inside you suddenly begin to encounter them in higher concentrations. Inhaling something designed to break down organic material means the risk for health problems just increased dramatically.
