Warning Signs of Mold
There are many warning signs that can indicate the presence of mold in your home or business. If you do suspect mold in your home or business, it is important to take care of the issue as soon as possible by contacting the Mold Removal Professionals at RestorEAZE. Here are four signs that might indicate you have mold in your home.
1. Visible mold spores
This is the most obvious way to identify mold in your home. Unfortunately, if you can see mold in your home, the issue is probably worse than it looks. Many people will try the DIY mold remediation strategy by scrubbing the mold with a sponge. However, this will not eliminate your mold problem as there will most likely be more mold than what is visible. In this situation, the homeowner should contact RestorEAZE and let the mold removal experts get the situation under control by finding the source and cause of the mold.
2. Musty Smell
If your home has an unusual musty smell, this could be the result of a mold issue. There are many different types of mold with many different odors which makes it difficult to describe the smell. Nevertheless, if there is a suspicious smell in your home, it should be evaluated.
3. Flooding/Moisture
Often times, repeated floods can lead to bigger mold problems. If your basement floods every time it rains, you should keep an eye on it to make sure it does not turn into a mold disaster. Even if mold is not present directly after the flood, there is still a chance the area is vulnerable to a mold outbreak. Mold can be hard to discover without the proper equipment and experience from the restoration technicians.
4. Health Issues
When there is mold present in your home, it is common to experience the following symptoms:
· Frequent headaches
· Coughing
· Running nose
· Respiratory issues
· Nosebleeds
If you are experiencing these symptoms in your home, keep in mind that it could be the result of mold.
The best way to deal with a mold problem in your home is by contacting the mold removal experts to properly remove the mold and prevent any mold-related issues in the future.
