Do you have Mold? Is it toxic mold? Do you have water damage from a flooded basement which is causing moisture to buildup in your home or business? The moisture associated with water intrusions will promote the growth of toxic mold such as Stachybotrys, Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Cladosporium.
The longer an indoor contaminant is allowed to remain intact, the greater its potential impact on human health and on the structural integrity of the facility. Mold can grow on most common building materials if they remain wet for 24 to 48 hours.

Mold Remediation
What Should NOT be Done in Mold Remediation?
It is that time of the year again when it is all cold and humid, with precipitation on the side, and the snow falling. It is also this time of the year where the weather is particularly calling for more cuddling and romance.
At the same rate too, this is the time of the year when molds come in two’s, three’s or sometimes even a dozen of them all in our favorite loaf bread, and other food products. Sometimes they would even linger in our favorite pieces of furniture and other stuff.
We know molds only as that mini surprise that we mothers often find in the fridge after our futile search to that one special ingredient in our homemade treat.
But little do we realize that they are there always there, even in some places that we least expect them to be. And more often, finding them is as hard as getting rid of them.
Mold remediation pertains to the various processes that we can employ to remove molds in an indoor environment. Let us move away from learning the process, like what we should do, or what equipment we should use. Also mold remediation is concerned in preventing the further proliferation of molds and protecting the health of the workers performing the deed.
Let us tackle the basic no-no’s in mold remediation.
While it is true that in order for molds to die or leave the vicinity, there should be zero humidity and moisture, it is not advisable to expose the mold-ridden object to high heat, dry air and sunlight.
Mold remediation process should always be done in a well ventilated place and free from UV light and ozone. Those two extremely strong forces could possibly even help the mold growth and make our mold remediation process a failure.
Even more, experts in mold remediation are not encouraging the application of fungicides in the molds, because though this may kill the molds and make it non-viable, the persisting other molds and its by-products can still elicit hazardous effects on both the old and the young.
The simplest way to remediate molds is to use detergent solutions and anti-fungal agents that are really meant for getting rid of those molds.
And to permanently remediate the mold, the source should be cleaned-up and the moisture should be eliminated. The spores, which are invisible to the naked eye, are the major problem in mold remediation.
Inasmuch as we want to remove the mold, we have to get rid of the spores too so we could ensure that they would not come back for more.
With this dilemma on spores, it is highly recommended to call the professionals and experts in mold remediation. Doing so will save you from the possibility that you might be doing the wrong thing, therefore aggravating the damage.
Acting very quickly on mold remediation is of the utmost importance. Among the many ill effects of mold growth is damage to the object that the mold now calls home. Destroying the house is one of the worst case scenarios that molds may bring, if not removed immediately and properly.
