Identifying Common Signs of Mold in Your Property

🔍 What is Mold and Why is it Dangerous?

Mold is a type of fungus that thrives in damp environments. It can grow on various materials, including wood, drywall, and carpets, posing serious health risks to inhabitants. When mold spores are inhaled, they can cause allergies, respiratory issues, and other health-related problems, especially in vulnerable populations such as children and the elderly.

Recognizing the common signs of mold is vital for early intervention. Look for visible growth on walls and corners, a persistent musty odor, or any unusual increases in moisture levels. If these signs become apparent, it is essential to act quickly by contacting mold removal professionals like BELFOR.
