Take Down Mold With Our Help

microscopic-view-of-mold-growthWhen you spot mold in your cupboard or on food in your fridge what is the first thing you do? You get rid of is ASAP! Mold can be harmful to your health if consumed or if the spores are breathed in. We all know that mold is a bad thing but what do you do if it’s hidden from your sight?

When you live in Florida, you will sometimes have mold that starts to grow in areas that you can’t see. In these instances, you may start to notice the symptoms created by the presence of mold before you ever see it. Whether you can see that there is mold growing in your home or not, you should reach out for mold remediation in West Palm Beach, FL as soon as you can.

How to Tell You’ve Got Mold

Living in Florida means you are going to deal with a lot of extra airborne moisture that can create problems like mold and mildew growth in your home. Here are some of the warning signs that you might be dealing with mold in your home even if it’s not visible:

  • Any signs of water damage or a collection of moisture: Mold needs moisture to grow so if you have water damage in your home or you notice areas that are overly moist, it is likely that you have mold.
  • Musty smells around the house: Mold growth is going to create a distinctly earthy scent that can be unpleasant. Smelling this scent means you will want to get started on finding and removing the mold from your home.
  • Symptoms of allergy problems: Mold is going to create a lot of problems for residents in a home. Symptoms can range from minor sneezing and coughing to severe reactions like skin irritation, asthmatic signs, and feelings of being ill.
  • Visible mold growth: Mold growth isn’t always visible but when it is, it is good to know what to look for. Keep your eyes peeled for discoloration and patches that are black, green, gray, or white.
