Mold / Air Quality Testing
What Is Mold?
Molds are
microscopic organisms found virtually everywhere, indoors and
outdoors. Most people think that mold is slimy, blackish-green
discolorations that gradually increases in size, but found only in
dirty, unkempt homes or apartments. The truth is, mold and spores
can flourish in sparkling clean environments as well.
Where mold can be
found.
We’ve all seen mold; ugly stains of white, orange, green, brown and
black spreading on walls, floors and other surfaces. But the most
dangerous mold is the mold we can't see. Mold and mildew is inside
your sink and dishwasher cabinets and probably in your bathrooms and
laundry areas. There is an 86% chance of mold growing somewhere in
or on your refrigerator. Its nestled into the microscopic crevices
of clothing, furniture fabric and in your carpeting. There is little
doubt that mold spores exist in your heating and air conditioner
system ductwork from where mold is continually dispersed throughout
a home or building looking for a place to “plant” its self and grow.
It can be found in your window sills, basement, crawl space and
attic, office desk, indoor plants, kitchen counter space, on the TV,
in your fireplace and countless other places.
SHOULD YOU BE CONCERNED
ABOUT MOLD IN YOUR HOME OR OFFICE?
Yes! Eventually, mold will destroy whatever it grows on. It
can ruin furnishings, destroy cabinets and cause serious damage to
the structural elements in your property. Mold is extremely durable
and adaptable. It can survive in the harshest conditions and is
resistant to even the strongest disinfectants and bleaches.
Eliminating leaks and moisture can slow the spread of mold, but
testing to determine the type of mold is the first responsible step
in creating an effective action plan.
