9/16/2020 (Permalink)

We all have heard about mold and how there are over 100,000 different types but here are some interesting things you might have missed.

  1. Mold has been proven to help gardens grow.
  2. Mold spreads quickly on walls and other surfaces because it requires growth to survive.
  3. Bleach does not kill mold it just changes the color of it.
  4. Mold tends to grow more in dark areas
  5. Because mold looks a lot like mildew it’s often confused with it.
  6. Mold can grow in dirty air ducts too, causing mold to circulate around.

To stay safe and healthy from mold check your home regularly. Make sure to check in your basement, ceilings, tiles, under carpets and showers. If mold is found have a professional check it out. Give SERVPRO of Springfield/Mt. Vernon a call.
