Having mold grow in your home is a very dangerous thing. It can affect your health and the health of your family. Removing mold from your home is a difficult task. It is often necessary to contact a mold removal service. However, before you can remove the mold from your home you must first identify if you have a mold problem.
The following are three ways to tell if you have mold in your home:
Check for Allergy Symptoms
If you have recently moved into a home, and now are experiencing problems with allergies it is possible that these allergies might be related to mold growing in your house. Often times when people have an allergic reaction to mold, they sneeze, their eyes hurt, they have sinus congestion, and they have a constant runny nose. Ask yourself, are these symptoms worse when I am at home? Do my symptoms clear up when I am not at home? If the answers to either of these questions is yes, then there is a chance that you have mold in your home. Call a mold removal company immediately.
Check the Smell of Your Home
Black mold has a very distinct smell. Interestingly, more times than not people smell mold in their home before they see it. This means that an individual should not ignore any odd odors that they smell in their home especially if they think that these orders are related to mold. It would be a good idea to thoroughly search for mold, or have your home professionally inspected if you smell mold in your home. It might also be a good idea to contact a mold removal service.
Seeing Mold Growth
The most obvious sign that there is mold in your home is seeing it grow. It is essential that a person takes immediate action when they see mold growth in their home. This is the case if we are only talking about a small amount of black mold, or if we are talking about mold that is covering an entire wall. If immediate action is not taken, the problem will quickly get larger. Call ServiceMaster by Wright 239-431-9947 for mold removal services immediately.
