As spring approaches, (with summer close at its heels), flowers are soon to be all a-bloom. The downside of this mild weather is the chance that you might find yourself uncontrollably sneezing even inside your home. 

Mold can grow anywhere inside your home, particularly in places where there is water damage.

Mold exposure is also a major concern for homeowners who live in climates with more months of precipitation and rain. Mold is useful as an agent that breaks down dead organic matter, such as fallen leaves and dead trees, but having them inside your home is another story. 

Black mold is actually greenish black found on materials that have been damaged by water, such as wood, straw, wicker, hay, and cardboard. When you suspect the presence of mold, act immediately by signing up for Laguna Hills mold damage restoration services.

Where can Mold be found?

Mold can grow anywhere inside the house, but most especially in high-moisture areas, or in spaces damaged by water or where water tend to pool. The usual spots are damp, dark spaces, such as the cellar or basement, as well as in bathrooms, kitchens (particularly under the sink) and on windows. Mold will also thrive unnoticed in damp, wet places, such as your dishwasher, particularly when this appliance is not maintained properly by leaving it clean and dry.

If you suspect a mold problem in your home, find the source by looking for telltale signs of mold infestation, such as visible mold growth, musty odors, and excess moisture or humidity. Mold growth caused by water damage should be immediately addressed. Get help from companies such as SERVPRO, which offers water damage restoration in Laguna Hills, to save you from the detrimental effects of rampant mold growth in your home.
