Mold inside of the home is nothing unusual. For example, a bathroom, with all the moisture it is subjected to when people take hot showers or baths, is a perfect place for mold to grow. When it does, typically household cleaners are used to either deal with existing mold or are used as preventative measures to keep mold from growing. However, there are materials that can’t be cleaned with household cleaners, and there are places inside the home that people can’t reach or see. This is where mold growth can be the most dangerous.
Often times, roof leaks, plumbing leaks or moisture left over from a flooding incident can lead to excessive moisture, which can lead to mold growth. Unfortunately, this sort of mold can cause a lot of problems. Not only can it destroy the materials it grows on, it can disperse mold spores into the air, and this can significantly impact a person’s health. Those who are very young and elderly people tend to suffer the most. In addition, people with respiratory issues or people whose immune system is compromised can feel the effects of increased mold spores in the air. In fact, even long-term exposure for healthy people can prove detrimental and, in some cases, even fatal.
