Mold spores are microscopic, float along in the air, and can enter your home through windows, doors, or AC/heating systems. They can even hitch a ride indoors on your clothing or a pet. Once they have entered your home they can produce allergens and irritants and they also have the potential to cause other health effects. Mold also has the potential to spread quickly through your home or business in as little as 48 hours. SERVPRO of Burlington can inspect and assess your property if you suspect there is a mold problem. You can count on us to have the training, equipment, and expertise to remedy your mold infestation.
You can learn what to do until SERVPRO of Burlington arrives by reviewing these following tips. Stay out of affected areas. Turn off the HVAC system and fans to help keep mold from spreading. Don't touch or disturb the mold. Don't blow air across any surfaces with visible or suspected mold growth. Don't attempt to dry the area yourself. Last but not least don't spray bleach or other disinfectants on the mold.

Understanding Mold
Some restoration companies advertise “mold removal” and may even guarantee to remove all mold. This is a fallacy because removing all mold from a house or business is impossible; microscopic mold spores exist almost everywhere, both indoors and outdoors. Here are the facts:
- Mold is present almost everywhere, indoors and outdoors.
- Mold spores are microscopic and float along in the air and may enter your home through windows, doors, or AC/heating systems or even hitch a ride indoors on your clothing or a pet.
- Mold spores thrive on moisture. Mold spores can quickly grow into colonies when exposed to water. These colonies may produce allergens and irritants.
- Before mold remediation can begin, any sources of water or moisture must be addressed. Otherwise, the mold may return.
- Mold often produces a strong, musty odor and can lead you to possible mold problem areas.
- Even higher-than-normal indoor humidity can support mold growth. Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent.
