Managing Mold

When most people hear the word mold, the reaction is fear.

When most people hear the word mold, the reaction is fear. Fear for getting sick, fear for the damage it may cause, and fear of what it means.

What people may not know is the fungi and mold naturally occur in our environment every day. Some forms (and there are over 100,000 fungi that have been identified) are actually helpful and add value to our lives. Others are harmful and require remediation to give everyone safe. 

When water intrusions go untreated, the resulting damage can present increased risk of harmful mold growth. If the humidity and moisture levels in a water-damaged environment are not promptly returned to normal, mold spores may grow and multiply.
