It is the one word that can strike fear into the heart of just about any home or business owner: mould. Mould is a big problem that can often remain in hiding, spreading all the while. For many of us, by the time the mould is found, the damage can be extensive, costly, and force us out while the problem is handled by professionals. It’s important to tackle the problem as quickly as possible once mould is found or even suspected.
Here are a few things to know about mould. It builds up over a period of time in damp areas. Mould is actually perfectly natural. In fact, mould exists in a variety of forms throughout our environment. That being said, when the amount of mould present exceeds normal levels–such as when it builds up in your home or office–it can become problematic. Mould spores have been known to cause allergic reactions, asthma attacks, chronic sinus problems, poisoning by mycotoxins, and even fungal infections. The problems can extend into fatigue and even depression–all very good reasons to avoid mould at all costs.
Mould in excessive levels can affect not only your health and the health of your family, it can also affect the structure of your home or building. That’s why it’s so important to handle mould quickly and carefully, with the experts at your side. When it comes to taking care of mould damage, it really is no time for second best.
