First, let's go over a quick review of mold. All molds are fungi, and share biology with mushrooms and athlete's foot, for example. The mold that is toxic to you and your family is relatively uncommon in the fungi kingdom, meaning most kinds aren't harmful. However, some molds are dangerous, so any mold you find indoors must be cleaned up and completely removed.
That means reaching out to a a mold damage repair company is best. If you see mold growth, there is probably hidden mold behind walls, in attics and elsewhere.
Check credentials before you hire a mold removal company. The State Business Licensing Division is a good place to begin, and you can check for affiliations such as as the Contractor Connection, Restoration Industry Association and the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration. You can also make sure the company knows and follows federal mold cleanup recommendations whether your mold is in a business or a residence.
Mold damage left to grow sends off spores, which fly like dandelion seeds and can harm your possessions rapidly. If you don't, harmful mold will keep eating on your home or business and will ruin your things.
