How it can affect you, your family, and your home?

Mold exposure can cause health problems in even the healthiest individuals. However, Mold can be devastating for the vulnerable such as:

People with current respiratory conditions (e.g., allergies, asthma, or emphysema)
People with a compromised immune system (Organ transplant patients, chemotherapy patients, Etc.)
Infants and young children as they have less developed immune systems and their bodies are still growing.
Pets as they have weaker immune systems
Senior Citizens as they have weaker immune systems, poorer lung function, and take medications for other health problems

Mold exposure will cause a variety of symptoms from the most minimal to the most severe. These common symptoms include:

watery eyes
runny nose
sneezing
itching
coughing
wheezing
difficulty breathing
headache
fatigue

Now, the longer the mold exposure, the graver the health effects. These include:

Dizziness
Headaches
Disorientation
Shortened Attention Span
Memory loss / Memory problems
Numbness
Anxiety
Depression
Shaking / Trembling / Tremors
Slow Reflexes
Hallucinations
Cognitive Dysfunction
Confusion / Disorientation

As if the health effects that come with mold exposure wasn’t enough, Mold can destroy your home if left untreated.

Mold can destroy wallpaper, drywall, carpet, wooden studs in walls, ceiling tiles, floorboards, and other structures inside the home. If the mold is left alone, it is possible it can cause collapse of ceilings, caving in of floorboards, and falling of walls.

Mold in your HVAC system can compromise the air quality inside your home as well. It would be very difficult to remove mold from inside ductwork. Now imagine air blowing through and spreading those mold spores via every air vent into every room in your home.

As we know, Mold is a natural part of the environment and does have its place, which is outdoors.

We also now know, Mold growth indoors can have very negative effects on both living beings as well as property.
