Mold, mildew, yeast, mushroom, and rust are all names of fungus. Fungus plays a vital role in nature by degrading natural materials such as dead wood and leaves. Before modern times, fungus was only dangerous if certain types were ingested. But now, fungus can grow indoors by feeding on paper, cardboard, plasterboard, and tiles. This kind of fungus, referred to as mold, can be inhaled and absorbed through the skin. If ignored, mold can become toxic and can affect your health as well as create massive amounts or property damage.
What causes Mold?
Mold needs two things to grow: food and water. Since buildings are made of wood products and other natural materials, mold food is always plentiful. Therefore, water is the key in controlling mold growth indoors. Mold can begin growing within 24 hours of a water spill and can release spores that travel through the air. Water can get inside a number of ways:
- Leaky plumbing
- Neglected HVAC ducts
- Unsealed windows and doors
- Leaky roofs and walls
- Window condensation
- Interior Vapor Barriers
- Air humidity
Your Family
Doctors are realizing that mold is often the culprit behind many different health problems. If you own a home or office, you need to be aware of the severe health problems mold can cause for your family or employees:
- Respiratory problems: difficulty breathing, wheezing.
- Allergies: itchy red eyes, runny nose, sore throat, and a hacking cough.
- People with weakened immune systems are more susceptible to mold.
- Mold has been linked to tripling the asthma rate over the last 20 years.
- Mycotoxins can cause headaches, memory loss, and mood swings.
Your Investment
Did you know that new homes and offices are often moldier than older ones? Modern building designs implement airtight structures to conserve energy and are made from more organic materials. Out of control mold devalues and destroys property, even makes entire buildings toxic and uninhabitable.
- Ventilations systems recycle air contaminated with mold spores throughout buildings
- Cleaning infected areas often ends up disturbing the mold causing it to release millions of toxic spores into the air.
- Because mold mostly grows in unseen places, real estate agents and home inspectors are sometimes completely unaware of the extent of damage from mold.
