Other things to know
Steps for Prevention & Early DetectionTo help prevent mold from growing in your property, try following these useful tips:
- Use dehumidifiers to keep humidity levels below 50%
- Promptly repair any roof leaks
- Regularly inspect for plumbing leaks
- Keep gutters clean and ensure proper drainage around your property
- Run exhaust fans in bathroom when bathing or showering and in kitchen when cooking
- Clean up any spills or wet areas quickly
- Schedule regular HVAC maintenance
- Regularly clean your sinks, showers, tubs, and toilets
If you suspect mold but don’t see it, you can request mold testing services. If you can see the mold, you have two options: dealing with it yourself or calling for professional mold remediation services. Minor spots of mold on non-porous surfaces, like your bathtub, can typically be dealt with by yourself, but if you spot mold on ceilings or walls, it’s hard to know how far the mold has grown. Call a professional for mold remediation services if:
- The mold covers a large area
- The mold is growing inside walls, ceilings, or air ducts
- The mold is growing on porous surfaces
- DIY mold removal efforts haven’t worked
- Occupants of your home or business experience mold-related health concerns
- There is ongoing water damage or persistent moisture problems
- The mold is “black mold”
- You or other occupants are allergic to mold
