Mold Problem in Sabin?
11/16/2020 (Permalink)
Mold and Microbial Growths, Oh My!
According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), mold is present in the atmosphere and floats around until the optimum environment is found to thrive. Mold loves any organic material and can grow on just about anything as long as moisture and oxygen are present. Molds can grow on wood, paper, carpet, food, and insulation, and it eats or digests what it is growing on and has even been known to cause structural damage to buildings if not mitigated in time.
SERVPRO® of Moorhead has years of experience mitigating mold and other microbial growths, and has a team of highly trained technicians who are on call 24 hours a day, every day. Here are some common moisture problems identified by the EPA that encourage mold growth:
- Leaking roofs
- Leaking or condensing water pipes
- Leaking fire-protection sprinkler systems
- Landscaping, gutters and downspouts that direct water into or under a building
- High humidity (60% relative humidity)
- Unvented combustion appliances such as clothes dryers vented into a garage. (Clothes dryers and other combustion appliances should be vented to the outside.)
