Like most living things, mold needs three essentials to survive: water, air and food. It derives water from its environment, causing it to thrive in warm, damp, humid conditions. It derives food from any organic surface, such as wood, paper, dust, paint, glue, wallpaper and cardboard.
Mold produces extremely small spores. These spores can become easily airborne traveling by breeze, water drop, person or animal.
Interestingly, no one knows the exact number of mold species on the planet. But estimates range from 10,000 to 300,000. What we do know, however, is that all mold species have the potential to cause health issues and to damage building materials and furnishings.
Reactions to mold and severity of symptoms can vary based on a number of factors including:
A few symptoms and/or allergic reactions you may experience include:
Another health risk of mold exposure is a compromised immune system, which can put you at greater risk for infections affection skin, eyes, lungs and other organs.
Since all species of mold can pose health risks as well as building damage, it is important to begin mold remediation upon first signs of growth. Here are some red flags indicating mold is an issue:
Not only should you be vigilant about visible mold, but also be advised that hidden mold can be equally or more dangerous left untreated. Hidden mold can grow inside wall cavities, wallpaper, paneling, ceiling tiles, walls, behind furniture, drain pans and air handling units.
