Mold Removal to End That Sick Feeling

Although thousands of homeowners are living with hidden and blatant spore growth within their apartment, condo, or house, they don't think that mold removal is a priority. They think of bathroom, basement and attic growths as par for the course in homeownership. So they scrub with a little bleach cleaner and poof; it's all gone, or so they think.

Extracting the color from the spore growth or temporarily shrinking the growth does not remove it or stop its expansion there or anywhere else in the home. After all, mold removal isn't just a part of home ownership. It is a problem that exists from spores entering the home, flourishing in the temperature of environment, attaching to a food source, and digging in to multiply and spread throughout your home. It is not something for anyone to just live with.

Mold removal may be needed for the hidden crevices of the basement, under insulation in the attic, and behind old boxes, in the closets, where the rain came in that one time. However, spore growth is not limited to the most suspected areas. Did you know that if you have multiple trouble spots throughout your home and they are stubborn or flat out resistant to the grocery store cleansers that you likely have an infestation that goes throughout your home? This means that the elevated amount of spores in the air quality of your home, combined with agreeable humid temperatures, and the amount of available organic food sources, the spores are likely to have attached in multiple spaces.

You may find them growing throughout your carpeting, floorboards, clothes hampers, linen closets, and pantry. You may have even noticed that it forms quickly on any fruits and vegetables you were once able to leave out for days to let ripen or wait for your cooking schedule. Now you feel like a prisoner to food rot, having to race an unknown clock in order to enjoy your own food. But you don't eat that produce because you know that it will likely make you ill.

Further, what about that general nauseated feeling you have by the end of the day or the upper respiratory issues you've developed over the years. Did you know that repetitive mold inhalation can cause anything from minor irritation to aggravation of asthma as well as a host of other physical and psychological repercussions?

Although you've tried so many times on your own, professional mold removal means never having to do it again. It consists of a thorough inspection of all of the common growth that home owners point out, the not so common areas that the specialists learn about in training, and all of the areas in between.

From here remediation can begin. If your home's growths are limited to specific areas then they will be sectioned off for the cleaning and treatment process. If it is found throughout the home, you will likely be asked to vacate during this stage of the process.

First, moisture will be extracted because it is far easier to remove the growths when they are dry. Second, abrasive tools and industrial strength cleansers will be applied. Third, an anti-fungal solution will be applied to the area in order to kill the roots and prevent its return.

Finally, your air ducts will likely have to be flushed in order to contribute to the reduction in spores in the air of your home. It's a multi-step process but it's a thorough one that thousands of homeowners appreciate both visually and physically when they notice the change in air quality and overall comfort for years to come.
