PERSISTANT MOULD IN YOUR HOME

What you should know about reoccurring mould in your bathroom or basement.

Mould is a fungus that can keep reoccurring in dark, high-humidity areas of your home, such as bathrooms or a damp basement. No matter how many times you try and clean it, it keeps coming back.  

Many homeowners underestimate the danger of mould, especially the presence of black mould in bathrooms and basements.  While most people think of it as only being unsightly, many types of mould can also be hazardous to your health and your home.   

There are several varieties of black mould, but one of them, Stachybotrys chartarum, is the most toxic and can grow indoors wherever there is long-term, reoccurring moisture. Toxic black mould releases mycotoxins, a noxious substance that can cause serious harm to humans including headaches, breathing difficulties, lung infections and allergic reactions. Only a mould remediation expert can determine which variety of black mould is in your home.

Black mould can also cause structural damage to your home as it spreads and reproduces by making spores that can be carried by air or moisture to new locations and create new growth. Professional mould removal contractors know how to handle and remove black mould thoroughly and properly so it doesn’t spread. They can also treat the affected area to help prevent black mould from reoccurring.
