CAN MOLD POSE A HEALTH THREAT?

Mold Can Threaten Your Health

 

Mold grows in dark, wet places where moisture has been allowed to sit unnoticed. In some instances this mold can start to affect the health of members of the family, or even pets. Homes near bodies of water are generally more susceptible to mold growth because of increased moisture that settles and is found in the air. When family members seem to become ill and you can’t find a reason for it, it could be mold. It may be an allergic reaction, but sometimes it can develop into more serious health issues. Mold can pose a threat to your health.

 

How Do You Determine If Mold Is Growing?

 

A mold inspection by Aurora Home Inspections LLC is a good way to determine if mold is growing in your home.

We offer qualified mold inspection using up-to-date mold detection techniques.

 

A Certified Mold Inspection Can Prevent Health Problems Caused By Mold

 

As mold is very often invisible and hides on surfaces as well as in the air, a thorough mold inspection by a qualified mold inspector is in order. Mold does sometimes present a musty odor, but most often homeowners are unaware of its presence. Aurora Home Inspections offers certified mold inspections, either as part of an overall home inspection or as a separate specific inspection for mold. If you suspect the presence of mold in your home, call Aurora Home Inspections at (201) 476-9200. We are located in Bergen County NJ, but we serve a wide area in and around Bergen County.
