All molds need water to grow. Black mold can grow almost anywhere there is water damage, high humidity, moisture, or dampness.
Exposure to toxic black mold may cause or worsen conditions such
as asthma, hay fever or other allergies. The most common symptoms of
overexposure from toxic mold are cough, congestion, runny nose, eye
irritation, and aggravation of asthma.
DIY mold test kits do offer a reliable and fast way to find the presence of toxic black mold.
Suddenly homeless because of mold? It's happening here.
Residents of an apartment building are being evicted because their
building is filled with mold. The apartments building was damaged
during a recent storm. Now its filled with mold caused by the heavy
rains.
The
people who live there hoped the landlord would fix the problem. But he
says the insurance company is telling him to move the residents
out...right away.
Mold can cause allergies, and some people are confusing confuse their symptoms with frequent colds. There is a difference.
Mold can also cause an orrible smell:
an elementary school was closed on Monday and Tuesday due to an odor
caused by a waterproofing sealant that had been applied to the
cafeteria ceiling.
The original problem? Water leakage. Do we need to repeat one more time that the key to mold control is moisture control? |
