Mold infestation is a serious matter and should not be taken lightly. Statistics show that more than fifty percent of households in America are contaminated with mold.  Mold thrives in a high moisture and wet environment.  If your property has been damaged by mold, you should get in touch with a public adjuster in Boca Raton to learn about your options.  

There are many forms of mold and some are toxic which can turn your beautiful home into a danger zone. Did you know that certain types of mold are considered a health hazard? It’s safe to say mold is powerful enough to destroy your property and create health problems.  So, don’t wait any longer before you start taking action.   

Handling Mold Infestation in Your Home  

What is Mold and Why Is It Bad? 

Mold is a kind of fungus that can grow inside or outside your home. What makes mold dangerous is when it begins releasing mold spores. Although they can grow anywhere, they are particularly attracted to moisture. Therefore, mold growth is common in showers, refrigerators, and homes that have been damaged by water and floods.  

There are two reasons why you should be worried about mold infestation.  

1. When it starts growing it could destroy your prized possessions and cause irreversible damage.  

​2. It releases hazardous spores into the air that can make you and your family sick.  

The most common type of mold is Stachybotrys Chartarum aka black mold. 
 
Is My Home Contaminated by Mold?  

Mold thrives in dark and moist environments. Homes that are situated in flood-prone zones and houses that incurred water damage as a result of plumbing problems are most susceptible to mold growth. How are you going to know if your property has mold?  

One of the indications of mold contamination is when the occupants develop symptoms of respiratory problems.   

What to Do If Your Home is Infested by Mold

If mold is present in your home the first thing you should do is avoid the areas that are  contaminated. When you are constantly exposed to mold you will likely experience health problems.  
 
Some of the symptoms to look out for include eye irritation, runny nose, nasal congestion, sneezing, sore throat, coughing, skin rash, wheezing, headache, and lung irritation. You should consult with a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. The next step is to repair the source causing the mold.  Once that is completed, you must rid your property of mold by calling a reputable and professional mold remediation company. Due to its toxicity, you should never remove mold yourself.  

If the damage to your property caused by mold is extensive, you should talk to a public adjuster so you both can review your insurance policy to check if the damage is covered and if you should file an insurance claim.
