What do you do WHEN you have mold damage?
Facing mold damage can be a serious concern, especially when it follows water damage, posing a threat to your property's integrity. To make matters worse, mold carries the potential for severe health issues, producing allergens, irritants, and even toxic substances (mycotoxins). Exposure to mold or its spores may trigger allergic reactions, including asthma, fever symptoms, sneezing, a runny nose, red eyes, itching, and skin rash (dermatitis). Allergic reactions to mold are common, occurring either immediately or with a delayed onset. Safeguard your loved ones from these ailments—swift action is crucial.
