Summer Mold Fighting Tips

During the summer months mold thrives, due to rising temperatures and excessive humidity levels. Hot temperatures and the recent increase in rainfall and flooding has made this season an ideal time for microbial growth. We have put together some useful mold busting tips below to help you to fight growth in your home.

The first step to stop mold growth is to prevent it from happening in the first place. To do this be sure to check the exterior walls, insulation, and the wood framing of your home for excessive dampness and your windows for condensation.

Decreasing the humidity levels in your home will also help to cut down on a chances of an infestation because mold requires moisture to thrive. You can reduce humidity by using dehumidifiers and air conditioning units. Be careful to maintain and clean these appliances regularly to ensure that they do not begin to produce moisture.

To reduce moisture build up, make sure that all rooms are properly ventilated, and that air continues to circulate throughout your home.

Summer break can be an ideal time to declutter the damp cardboard boxes and old papers in your basement. By removing the cellulose these items are made from you will eliminate the food source for mold, preventing a spread.

According to a recent survey by BrightLocal , around 90% of consumers read reviews on businesses and 57% of them will not hire anyone with less than a four-star rating. From the point of view of a consumer, relying on the experience of others to make a choice about who to hire can help them to avoid pitfalls.
