Mould Removal: Don’t Allow Mould To Make You Unwell

Moisture, humidity, and wet conditions form a perfect trifecta for mould growth. Once you have mould, it can spread quickly throughout your home or office, negatively impacting your health. Once it is discovered, mould removal is a priority. Professional mould cleaning specialists can assist with mould mitigation, repairs, and cleaning the affected area to remove all traces from your indoor environment.

Mould cleaning to prevent the health effects of mould

Mould is a type of fungus that naturally occurs indoors, but that does not mean you should ignore it. The World Health Organisation (WHO) attributes exposure to mould with conditions like asthma, allergic alveolitis, and mould infections. Mould exposure can trigger more serious reactions in individuals with pre-existing lung or breathing conditions, worsening their symptoms.

People who are continually subjected to breathing mould may experience the following:

• Congestion and runny nose
• Dry cough
• Itchy, watery eyes
• Sinus headache
• Sneezing

Some household moulds are toxic and can cause serious illnesses like internal organ damage and mental impairment. If you suspect mould in your home, consult with a mould removal service immediately.

Signs you need a mould cleaning service

Leaving mould unchecked in the home is dangerous. Mould can hide in some inconspicuous places, including underneath your house and in the rafters. Signs that your home is harbouring a hidden mould issue include:

• A musty, earthy smell
• Cracking, peeling, or warping of material in the home (walls, flooring, ceilings)
• Signs of water damage
• Visible evidence of mould growth

Never ignore any of these warnings that mould is present in your home. Mould specialists can remove the source of the mould, repair any damage that it caused, and restore your indoor air quality.
