MOLD REMOVAL BY ABC ENVIRONMENTAL LLC
WHAT IS MOLD?
Mold is one of the most common challenges in homes, especially in moist, cold, humid, or damp surroundings. Mold is the molded guest in our homes that can grow on walls in the bathrooms, kitchen, and basement and make itself comfortable in your books and clothes too. Apart from being not-so-good to look at, mold has its mold-related repercussions and hazards. Growing severely can affect the human body in terms of skin allergies, irritation, coughing, wheezing, and respiratory or nasal congestion.

TYPES OF MOLDS:
Molds, a type of fungus have their varieties and are capable of growing both indoors as well as outdoors. Mold releases spores that float inside your homes, washrooms, and the cold and damp areas. Yes, all indoor spaces have mold spores and they can grow inevitably with favorable conditions. One can find molds on their walls, hard surfaces, clothes, paper, and even utensils or plastic. Molds can make a beautiful home look unattractive due to their patchy and spotty presence and they can be found in a variety of colors including brown, black, gray, green, or orange. Most commonly, the molds found in our homes are known as Aspergillus, Cladosporium, and black mold, which is also known as Stachybotrys. Apart from unpleasant sight and health risks, molds also release toxic and injurious odors in our homes or indoors.
THE MOST COMMON TYPES OF INDOOR MOLDS ARE:
Cladosporium
- This mold’s colour varies from brown to green, to black. It grows in both warm and cool locations and is most often found on wood, carpets, or fabrics, also in heating and cooling ducts.
Penicillium
- This fuzzy blue, green, or yellow mold is often found under carpets or in basements, and in insulation, especially when there’s been some water damage.
Aspergillus
- This mold is green, white, or gray with dark spots and has a powdery look. This type of mold doesn’t need much ventilation to grow. It thrives in fabrics, walls, attics, and basements, as well as on dry food items.
WHY YOU SHOULD CARE ABOUT MOLD
Outside, molds help to break down plant and animal matter. As part of the fungi family, they release tiny spores that float through the air. These spores can enter your home via:
-
doors
-
windows
-
heating and air conditioning vents
-
clothing and shoes
-
pets
Mold is a major- worldwide problem. It blackens and stains the grout lines in your shower, discolours drywall, shows up as black spots on the siding, darkens decks, and grows on/ rots damp wood everywhere. Even worse, it can be bad for your health. Mold releases microscopic spores that cause allergic reactions, runny noses and sneezing, as well as irritating and even injurious odours
In 2004 the Institute of Medicine (IOM) found there was sufficient evidence to link indoor exposure to mold with upper respiratory tract symptoms, cough, and wheeze in otherwise healthy people.
People with allergies may be more sensitive to molds. People with immune suppression or underlying lung disease are more susceptibl
e to fungal infections. Individuals with chronic respiratory disease (e.g., a chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder, or asthma) may experience difficulty breathing. Individuals with immune suppression are at increased risk for infection from molds. If you or your family members have these conditions, a qualified medical clinician should be consulted for diagnosis and treatment.
The same area can be infested with multiple molds, and we can’t always differentiate the mold without testing it. Luckily, knowing the type of the mold isn’t required to get rid of it.
