The Hidden Dangers of Mold in Your Home
Mold thrives in damp and humid environments, often growing in hidden areas like behind walls, under flooring, or inside HVAC systems. If left untreated, mold can:
- Compromise indoor air quality, leading to respiratory issues, allergies, and asthma (CDC, 2022).
- Cause structural deterioration, weakening wood, drywall, and insulation (EPA, 2023).
- Spread rapidly, making removal more complex and expensive over time (NIH, 2021).
- Reduce property value, making it difficult to sell a mold-infested home (American Lung Association, 2023).
Did You Know?
- Over 50% of U.S. homes have mold issues due to moisture buildup (Harvard School of Public Health, 2022).
- Exposure to indoor mold increases the risk of respiratory infections by 30-50% (World Health Organization, 2021).
- 93% of chronic sinus infections are linked to mold exposure (Mayo Clinic, 2023).
