Introduction To Mold (eBook)
Around the country, an increasing number of people are reporting a variety of symptoms related to the presence of mold growing in homes and businesses. While it is often assumed that mold will only grow in instances in which there has been a serious flood or a natural disaster, as we will discover in this guide; that is not always the case.
Mold does require moisture in order to grow, but many people are surprised by the fact that mold actually only requires a minimal amount of moisture in order to begin growing. Even if your home has not been the victim of a serious flood, you may still have mold growing in your home.
There is also another common misconception that if you have mold growing in your home, you will be able to see it. This is also not true. You could very well have mold growing in your home at this precise moment and never know it. Mold does have a distinct odor, but it is also very sneaking at hiding in locations in the home where you would never see it or suspect it, such as the air ducts of your home.
