Why Should I Care?

Mold spores are a natural part of the environment. However, elevated levels may be a cause for investigation.

Extensive mold growth can damage your carpet, furniture and walls. Over time, if it grows undetected, it can cause severe structural damage.

Another, more disturbing, impact is the potential health effect, which depends on the amounts and types of mold, frequency of exposure and sensitivities of the individuals.

The profile of those who may experience more severe symptoms would be those with existing respiratory conditions, weakened immune systems, infants, young children and the elderly.
