Mold often referred to as 'black mold,' is a global household problem. About 70% of homes currently have mold. Mold thrives in humid and hidden corners of our homes and offices that we cannot see. It is common to find black mold on ceiling tiles, windows, pipes, cupboards, and carpets. Once black mold settles on a damp surface, it can grow pretty quickly (sometimes in just a day or two). In most cases, by the time we notice mold growth, it would have already spread to other areas.
Having black mold in your home or office can be a huge nightmare. Apart from the fact that mold-covered surfaces can be irritating to look at, they also pose a health risk to you and everyone else in your environment.
When faced with a mold problem, your first instinct might be to go online to search for DIY solutions. However, attempting to get rid of black mold yourself is risky. You could expose yourself to toxic microscopic mold spores or miss mold spores hidden in crevices around your home or office. You could even damage your surroundings with heavy-duty chemicals.
Getting rid of mold must be done quickly and decisively. Delayed or unprofessional handling can make a little mold infestation become a more complex problem. That is why you need to enlist the help of a professional mold remediation service.
Mold is a type of fungus that can thrive anywhere, including basement, bathrooms, kitchens, and other areas in your home or office where there is dampness and moisture. Mold spores are microscopic and can be found even in the neatest of environments. Everyone is exposed to mold in the air they breathe, albeit in tiny amounts. Mold can appear black, white, orange, green, or purple in color.
Some of the mold types are Acremonium, Aspergillus, Chaetomium, Mucor, and Black mold. Black mold is the general term for all mold types with a dark greenish, gray, or black appearance. It is commonly known as Stachybotrys Chartarum.
Yes, you should be, depending on how severe the infestation is. Some people are sensitive to mold. They usually develop symptoms such as a runny nose, itchy eyes, rashes, cough, and wheezing. At the same time, people who are allergic to mold or have asthma experience intense reactions. People with compromised immune systems are also susceptible to mold infection.
According to the CDC, severe reactions such as fever and shortness of breath could occur in individuals exposed to large amounts of mold. Mold problems have become an issue for tenants, homeowners, and property managers. Failure to address these issues has resulted in countless litigations, health problems, and lost revenue.

How can I recognize mold?
Mold grows in moist areas like basements, attics, AC ducts, windows, under carpets, and even behind walls. One of the easiest ways to detect is to look for discoloration. It may be white, black, brown, green, tan, purple, etc. Click to read more on how to detect mold.
Is mold toxic?
Molds are often considered toxic, but the truth is that mold cannot make you sick by touching them. It needs to enter your body through ingestion or inhalation for mold toxicity symptoms to show up. As mold multiplies, it releases spores and other chemical substances into the air. Molds also release mycotoxins. These can cause allergies and other adverse effects in several individuals who are sensitive to mold.
What are the symptoms of mold exposure?
Symptoms of mold exposure are similar to respiratory allergies. It is common to observe flu-like symptoms like itchy eyes, runny nose, cough, congestion, and headaches. Click here to read more on mold exposure symptoms.
Should I leave my home because of a widespread mold infestation?
It depends on how sensitive you are to mold. If you notice any of the symptoms associated with mold infection, contact a doctor immediately to determine the next step to take.
Is mold the same as mildew?

Can I use bleach to remove mold myself?
To kill mold on surfaces in small areas and non-porous surfaces, you can use a solution of one cup of bleach in a gallon of water. However, this is not effective for widespread mold. You must not combine bleach with ammonia-based products. Doing so will produce toxic fumes that can cause adverse health effects. Always make sure the area is well ventilated when cleaning. Also, make sure you keep bleach away from your eyes and mouth when cleaning.
Is black mold more toxic than all other molds?
At present, there is no concrete scientific evidence to indicate that black mold is more dangerous than any other kind of mold out there.
How does mold smell?
Mold usually releases microbial volatile organic compounds (MVOC's). These compounds give off that musty smell that characterizes mold-infested areas.
