Microscopic mold spores are a constant presence in the air. Given the proper conditions, they will grow anywhere. Once this occurs, they can easily spread their spores throughout your home. Building materials also provide an excellent food source for mold to thrive. It destroys building materials, upholstery, and furnishings. It also irritates eyes and lungs. Mold can be a minor discomfort; however, anyone with allergies, a sensitive immune system, or respiratory issues, are at risk for severe health effects.

Mold Damage
Mold most often appears in places where water leaks in hidden areas, such as broken pipes inside a wall. Enclosed areas also keep the humidity high and allow mold to grow and spread undetected.
