Mold & Mildew Explained
"Mold" and "mildew" are words used to describe colonies of microscopic organisms (forms of fungi) that grow in warm, damp environments. There are slight differences between the two, but the effect of both is the same: if not completely removed, they can cause structural damage to your home as well as allergic reactions for the people in your home.
The Good News
In nature, molds and mildews are wonderful things. They grow in moist environments and break down leaves, woods, and other old materials. This decomposition process is an essential part of the Earth's regeneration cycle.
The Bad News
Unfortunately, it is mold's natural ability to break down organic materials that makes it so dangerous to the structure of your home. Molds can thrive on cardboard, carpets, EIFS, drywall, fabric, ceiling tiles, insulation, and other materials commonly found in homes. Molds and mildews also release microscopic spores into the air that, if inhaled, can cause allergic reactions in some people.
More Good News!
You can prevent the growth of mold and mildew by keeping your home clean, dry, and cool. Air conditioners, dehumidifiers, and fans can work together to keep the moisture out of the air, which will make your home an unsuitable environment for mold or mildew.
