EVERYONE can be exposed to natural environmental hazards that grow in their homes, at school or place of business.
This occurs through water intrusion that produces mold. Mold should be eliminated. Mold compromises the structural integrity of buildings and structures. Mold can compromise human health. ALL MOLD should be tested by a professional. Testing leads to the prevention of unhealthy air quality.
ACTIVE MOLD AND YOUR HEALTH
Active mold requires moisture. Spores appear everywhere such as on visible surfaces, hiding in dry wall and in carpets. Molds and other fungi grow easily in damp indoor environments. People who spend time in such environments sometimes complain of respiratory problems, headaches, and additional physical symptoms. Damp spaces harbor mold. Mold grows on materials in buildings breaking them down and causes dust mites, bacteria, chemicals, gasses, and particulate matter.
Some health effects attributed to mold may in fact be caused by the break down of these materials. Toxic mold causes toxic mold disease also known as “sick building syndrome.
Common indoor mold species include Aspergillus, Alternaria, Acremonium, Cladosporum, Dreschslera, Epicoccum, Penicillium, Stachybotrys, and Trichoderma.
A Fox Environmental will test your problem areas for specific types of molds and identify them.
This allows our expert to compare the indoor and outdoor mold species at a given location and time. If the two don’t correlate, at least roughly, it is possible that indoor mold colonies have developed. Even if they’re not in a visible location, such molds can release spores and other material into the indoor air.
