MOLD REMEDIATION RESORATION CHICAGO

Mold Remediation is not as scary as you think! Looking out for mold is something that should be a top priority for many home and building owners! We can’t stress enough how mold remediation can save your home from severe damage. Most of the time mold can be seen by the naked eye but many times it cannot. Some precautions and tests can be taken to detect and determine mold. It is always a good idea to have mold remediation and restoration specialists come by and check on your home or building if you’re uncertain. As summer ends and we approach fall we have some tips for how to make sure your home does not need mold remediation.

Keep an eye out for Autumn Leaves:

Did you know that the color and crunchy fall leaves are filled up by mold spores?

This can be brought back into your home and spread like wildfire. Make sure to wash your hands and clothes immediately after exposure to avoid contamination around your home! These spots are perfect for mold to develop and spread.

Fall Allergies:

Mold particles can cause allergic reactions and flare-ups. Mold particles in the air can attach themselves to surfaces. This will cause you to be in direct contact with the particles. If this happens and becomes severe to your health please seek medical advice and think about seeing mold remediation and restoration specialist.

October is a peak month for mold! Make sure to be prepared for mold in case it makes a stop during this fall season.
We have some DIY tests to conduct if you find yourself in this situation.

Spray down the surface with hydrogen peroxide. If the area fizzes up, you have a mold problem.

If you’re uncertain about what to do, it is best to contact a mold remediation and restoration specialist. Mold does spread fast and could cause significant damage.
