Frequently asked questions
Can You Get Rid of Mold Yourself?
It's not recommended to try DIY mold removal because of the exposure to potentially toxic spores. All colors of mold, not just black mold, have a chance of being harmful. If you do want to scrub small areas to clean your belongings, you should wear gloves, goggles, long sleeves and other protective dress and wash your clothes immediately afterwards. A respirator is recommended.
How to Get Rid of Mold Spores in the Air
Mold spores may be in your home without you even knowing it. When these microscopic living organisms become airborne, they can eventually cause an allergic reaction or even more serious respiratory issues. To protect yourself and your family, it's important to get rid of mold spores in the air.
The best way to do this is by controlling humidity levels. If the humidity level indoors rises above 50%, this kind of environment can allow mold growth to flourish. Dehumidifiers should be used when needed and running a fan helps circulate air around a room which can help disperse mold spores faster.
Keeping up with regular cleaning helps too as removing chances for moisture buildup will decrease the likelihood of mold spores growing and spreading throughout your home. By following these steps, you have a better chance at keeping your family safe from having any airborne health concerns related to mold.
What is the Difference Between Mold Removal and Mold Remediation?
Mold removal and mold remediation may sound like the same process, but they are actually two distinct procedures. Mold removal is the process of physically eliminating visible mold from surfaces such as walls and ceiling tiles, while mold remediation goes further by addressing the underlying issue that caused the mold to form in order to prevent its return.
Remediation often requires not only cleaning but also mold inspection and repairs of things like water damaged building material or broken seals around bath tubs that may be allowing moisture to enter.
Doing a complete job of mold remediation with follow up inspections and tests can cost more than simply doing a surface level removal but it will provide greater assurance that the problem won't just come back later on.
