How do you know if you have a serious mold problem? You may be able to smell mold, but you can’t always see it. Because mold usually festers in unseen places, such as underneath paneling, drywall, or carpeting, it is often difficult to determine how much mold exists in a building. Also, mold affects people differently. For some, it takes very few spores to trigger violent health problems. Even without noticeable symptoms, mold is unsanitary and undesirable. If your building smells moldy or you know there has been water damage, you should suspect your building has a problem with mold. Mold is a problem that requires a proactive solution. The incentive to worry about mold and fix the problem does not often occur after it is already too late. A little mold may be relatively harmless and easy to ignore. But when it becomes too great, mold can destroy property and permanently damage health. Mold claims are rapidly increasing, from $1 billion in 2001 to $2.5 billion in 2002 in personal injury and property claims. Homeowners have lost their houses due to rampant mold growth and become inflicted with lifelong debilitations. Renters and commercial businesses have been liable for the health problems of their tenants and employees as a result of moldy properties. Insurance companies are being forced to award millions to people who are suffering from mold attacks. Considering the potential losses that mold can cause, it makes sense to act proactively and prevent these devastating situations from occurring by using mold remediation services.
