Common Questions About Mold

What is Mold?

Mold is a common fungus, found all around the world, both indoors and out. There are many species of mold that can spread via air and water.

How Does Mold Need to Grow?

Mold grows in the presence of oxygen, a food source, and in an environment between 40-100 degrees F. As such, mold is commonly found in damp, humid areas, especially near spaces affected by leaks, overflows, or flooding.

Can You Get Sick From Mold in Your Home?

Mold is hazardous for your health and property. Side effects include asthma, rashes, headaches, allergic reactions, and difficulty breathing.

Beyond your body, mold is dangerous to your property. Spores can affect crawl spaces, foundations, roofs, HVAC systems, drywall, and more.

How Does Mold Grow?

Mold can spread through an organic food source. Fabrics and items such as cellulose are vehicles for mold. Cellulose is found in wood and drywall, and a mold infestation can seriously damage the building materials.

Do I Need a Mold Inspection?

If you have an inkling that there may be mold in the property, a mold inspection is where you should begin. However, if there is visible mold growing, you do not need a mold inspection.

If you are purchasing a new home, a mold inspection and mold testing is highly recommended before closing.

How Do I Know if I have Black Mold?

Be on the look out for signs of mold.  Discolored ceilings, floors, and walls are indicative of a mold issue. A musty odor may also be present.

You should note though, that the only way to confirm a toxic black mold infestation is with a professional mold inspection and mold test.

Can You Clean Mold Yourself?

DIY mold removal is rarely a smart choice. Only a certified Columbus OH mold removal company should attempt mold remediation services. We follow strict methods to eliminate mold in a safe manner.

What is the Best Product to Kill Mold?

There are many OTC products to kill mold. Depending on the severity of the infestation, DIY remedies may work. However, usually professional mold remediation services are required.  If handled improperly, mold can return.

Could I Use Bleach or Vinegar to Kill Mold?

Spores can reach far deep beneath the surface.  If you are attempting DIY mold removal, vinegar works well on porous materials like wood. Bleach works best on hard, non-porous surfaces. Only a professional mold removal company can verify that the mold contamination has been resolved.
