Mold Prevention & Mitigation: For your health

12/8/2017 (Permalink)

This moldy wall was caused by a moisture build up over a long period of time in Upland, CA.

Molds are found in every environment, and mold spores reproduce rapidly when moisture is present. An Institute of medicine study found excessive dampness indoors encourages the growth of molds and other organisms, potentially causing a public health problem. The EPA advised that the potential health concerns from molds are an important reason to prevent moisture problems leading to mold growth. Possible health effects include runny nose, sneezing, coughing, aggravation of asthma, sore throat, or inflammation of the sinuses.
