  • Why does mold form in my home?

    According to the EPA, mold is a part of the natural environment. Outdoors, molds play a part in nature by breaking down dead organic matter such as fallen leaves and dead trees, but indoors, mold growth should be avoided. Molds reproduce by means of tiny spores; the spores are invisible to the naked eye and float through outdoor and indoor air. Mold may begin growing indoors when mold spores land on wet surfaces. There are many types of mold, and none of them will grow without water or moisture.


    Key points to keep in mind:


    • The key to mold control is moisture control
    • If mold is a problem in your home, you should clean up the mold promptly and fix the water problem.
    • It's important to dry water-damaged areas and items within 24 to 48 hours to prevent mold growth.
