How to tell if you have Mold

What is Mold? 

As defined by: 

http://www.intuitiveenvsol.com/What_Is_Mold_.html

Mold is a kind of fungus that is unlike plants, animals and bacteria. Molds are eukaryotic microorganisms that are decomposers of dead organic material such as leaves, wood and plants.  The spores and hair like bodies of individual mold colonies are too small for us to see without a microscope which is why Mold testing is very important.  When a lot of mold is growing on a surface, it becomes visible, appearing in the form of colors like a black, blue and green.  Whatever color the mold turns determines the type of mold that it is which is influenced by the nutrient source.

Where does MOLD come from? How does it grow? 

Well it is important to NOTE, that in order for Mold to grow there are certain conditions that need to be present for its growth:

• Mold spores
• A food source (eg wood, drywall, cotton)
• Darkness (mold can't grow under ultraviolet light)
• Warmth (mold can't grow in freezing temperatures)
• Oxygen
• Moisture (eg water leaks, humidity)
• Enough time (most molds can begin to grow in 24-48 hours if the conditions are right)

HUMIDITY

Leaky Pipes

Leaky Roofs 

Condensation

Poor Ventilation 

Wet Materials

Floods

Dampness

How do we Prevent MOLD ?

Condensation is another frequent cause of moisture. Condensation forms on cold surfaces when water vapor in the air cools and becomes liquid.  Often you'll see condensation on metal pipes, concrete walls, water tanks and windows.

One way to reduce condensation is to keep the temperature warmer in rooms. For example, by installing insulation.  You can also insulate the surfaces themselves such as putting coverings over metal pipes. You'll also have less condensation occurring if you keep the humidity in your home low. 

SIGNS that you may have MOLD 

SMELLING MOLD in your Home/property

SEEING MOLD in your Home/Property

If you can see mold growth, without any hesitation you should take ACTION IMMEDIATELY!

Small mold patches can spread like wildfire and the fact that there is any mold at all shows that the conditions in your home are perfect for mold to grow rapidly.

Mold is something really serious that should definitely be taken care of by Professionals that are accustomed to dealing with such toxic removal/clean up.  Mold can be very dangerous to our health and prevented from spreading in every way.

Is mold bad for my health?

Most of the time, a low level of mold will have little effect on you. However, if you are allergic to mold or you suffer from asthma or other respiratory problems, the presence of mold in your home can be particularly bothersome. Exposure to indoor mold has also been shown to exacerbate asthma symptoms in sensitive individuals.
