Understanding the Dangers of Mold
Mold is more than just an unsightly nuisance—it’s a serious health hazard that can cause significant damage to homes and businesses. Mold thrives in damp, humid conditions and can spread quickly, often going unnoticed until it becomes a major issue. If left untreated, mold can compromise indoor air quality, weaken structural integrity, and lead to a range of health problems.
Exposure to mold can cause respiratory issues, allergies, skin irritation, and even chronic illnesses in sensitive individuals. People with asthma, weakened immune systems, or pre-existing health conditions are particularly vulnerable. Mold spores in the air can trigger symptoms such as coughing, sneezing, headaches, fatigue, and eye irritation. In severe cases, prolonged exposure to toxic molds like Stachybotrys chartarum (black mold) can lead to more serious neurological and respiratory conditions.
