Contrary to popular belief, mold does not affect neat homes and businesses; rather, it primarily affects filthy buildings or dwellings. Mold can be found anywhere, in any kind of house, workplace, or structure. The inhabitants are frequently suffering major health effects while being unaware that they have a mold problem.
Sneezing, a runny or stuffy nose, itchy or watery eyes, a sore throat, a cough and postnasal drip, wheezing, rashes, and other symptoms are some of the effects of mold disease. It is crucial to screen for mold because of this.
When should mold testing be done?
- If you notice mold or can smell must
- Whenever a flood, leak, or sewage backup has occurred
- Whether people or animals display allergy-like symptoms
- Before you start removing mold,
- If a basement, attic, or other location has moisture
- Before buying or selling any house or property, particularly if suspicious mold was discovered during a home inspection
- If an ice dam developed on your roof and water entered your house or place of business
The best method for detecting all types of fungi and spores is Indoor Air Quality Testing.
What Leads to Poor Indoor Air Quality (IAQ)?
There are numerous factors, with mold and VOCs serving as the two main offenders. New carpets, furniture, cabinets, mattresses, paint, printers, adhesives, vinyl, fabrics, scented candles, air fresheners, detergents, and other commonplace products all release VOCs into the air.
Exhaust from buses, other vehicles, subways, construction, and buildings is present in urban areas (steam pipes). You can count on the air in your house, business, or apartment to be far from ideal when you combine those two factors with population density. And that could hurt your health.
