Mold not only damages property, but can jeopardize human health. Mold must be removed by professionals because efforts by well-meaning homeowners can actually accelerate mold growth. Using UV light or high-heat drying has only temporary benefits and can be harmful to people, pets, wood, plastics, and plants. People are often confused by thinking that mold-resistant means mold-proof. It does not.

Water damaged building interiors provide a "prime" environment for the growth and reproduction of mold and bacteria. Molds are parasitic in that they rely on dead or decaying organic matter for food. One of the favorite foods for mold is the paper on drywall. This, coupled with warm humid air, creates the ideal environment for reproduction. The most common reaction to mold is an allergic reaction. However, individuals in a high risk group, such as children, elderly, someone who is immunocompromised, or with chronic respiratory problems may suffer more severe reactions. Bacteria are pathogens that may infect healthy individuals and cause serious illnesses in a matter of hours.

PuroClean’s mold removal services are comprehensive, encompassing mold remediation, mold odor removal, as well as cleaning and sanitization. The most effective way to protect your family and property from the threat of mold is to have it remediated immediately by a professional restoration company.
