Mold refers to fungi that can be found both indoors and outdoors. It is estimated that there could be from tens of thousands to perhaps over three hundred thousand species of fungi. Mold thrives in warm, damp, and humid conditions, spreading and reproducing through spores. These spores can survive even in the most adverse environmental conditions.
Over the past 20 years, mold contamination has become a national concern across the US. Mold exposure can lead to serious health issues, including allergic reactions, respiratory ailments, irritation of the nose & throat, skin irritation, and potentially permanent damage to the respiratory and nervous systems. Mold can be found in homes, within furniture, carpets, drywall, and upholstery. According to the CDC, “Most molds will not harm most people; however, some molds will affect any person and some people can be affected by any mold”. Infants (under 6 years old) and seniors (over 60 years old) are most vulnerable to mold exposure. Those with severe allergies or weakened immune systems can also experience severe reactions to mold exposure.
Neglecting to promptly address water intrusion that leads to mold contamination on your Columbus property, can result in significant damage as mold and fungi proliferate. Dealing with mold contamination requires a professional mold removal and remediation company in Columbus NC to extract the mold and properly treat the property. It’s crucial not to rely on the advice of non-experts. The most common misconception about black mold removal and mold removal in general is, “Just spray bleach on it”. However, bleach is 90% water and won’t solve the problem but could potentially worsen the situation.
