Indoor Air-Quality and Mold Testing in Florida

 Florida is an incredibly humid state. Its humid climate creates the precise circumstances needed for mold colonies to thrive, particularly in Miami and South Florida. Mold grows in commercial and residential properties in damp, dark, and humid areas. Mold can grow from a sustained amount of humidity or a water leak. For instance, a damaged roof that lets water and moisture creep into the attic provides the perfect conditions for an attic to turn into a mold infestation. As mold grows into a colony and reproduces throughout the property, it can start to exact a physical toll on the occupants and on the infrastructure. This is why it is critical to hire professional mold assessors to identify mold growth and its source.

Mold does not just create an eyesore, though. It can also inhibit a homeowner from selling their home, especially if that home is older. As mold infects the home it can damage the walls and require restoration services. Staying on top of mold right when discovered is best for the home’s integrity, health, and the eventuality that it needs to be sold. A home with a mold problem would be a tough home to sell indeed.

Mold Detection

Sometimes mold is an obvious eye-sore. Most of the time, though, mold is growing in damp and dark areas like the basement, attic, or behind the wall. The mold that is growing behind the scenes is the worst type to have because it is covertly affecting all the residents’ health and well-being without detection. The mold reproduces into tiny spores that travel through the home and grow into colonies on various other surfaces affecting the whole household.

Mold can cause various afflictions when they start to grow in the home. None the least of which include sniffles. If entering a home launches a kind of allergic reaction, then that could be a sign that mold is growing. They also generate respiratory and breathing problems and can exacerbate asthmatic symptoms when active. On top of allergies and breathing problems, mold is also known to cause:

• Skin rashes

• Headaches

• Throat irritation

These health concerns are heightened when children are present in the home. Children are more predisposed to long-term mold damage to their health if it is allowed to persist. Identifying that there is a mold problem is the first step in resolving the issue. Finding where the mold grows can help a professional mold inspector root out the cause of mold and improve the home’s air quality.
