With so many misconceptions surrounding mold, we get down to the dirty truth!
Thanks to extensive media coverage about mold, public knowledge about the dangers and harm associated with mold growth have increased significantly over the past several years. However, with all that knowledge undoubtedly comes misconceptions that have people questioning whether all the information being dispelled is real or fake. Instead of waiting to seek help from a mold remediator, here are some of the more common misconceptions associated with mold and what is actually correct about mold in your home.
Myth #1: Only Filthy Homes Can Grow Mold
Many people are often ashamed to seek professional help when their home is dirtier than they’d like it to be. In fact, some people are so embarrassed that they will live in mold-infested homes for fear that their neighbors will find out that they have a mold issue. However, residing in a mold infested home is highly dangerous. The reality is, any home, no matter how clean or dirty is susceptible to mold growth. As a result, just because you need a mold remediator to come remove mold from your house does not necessarily mean that you live in a dirty home. Mold grows in certain conditions. For instance, when a home is engulfed with an abundance of moisture, the mold is likely to grow. On the other hand, your home doesn’t necessarily have to be dirty to have excess moisture. All it takes is some prolonged exposure to water damage for your home to be a breeding ground for mold to grow.
Myth #2: Mold Inspection Is Typically Messy And Intrusive
Due to the nature of mold, it is usually challenging to pinpoint how mad the mold situation is on the surface. A thorough evaluation by a mold specialist is often the only way you will know the extent of your mold problem. In fact, mold can often hide in hard to see places which is why many homeowners are unaware that they even have a mold issue. As a result, contacting a mold remediation specialist that is experienced and understands the intricacies of mold and how it grows is usually the best option for you.
