Molds release spores that not only damage your interiors but also pose health risks, irritating eyes and respiratory systems. It’s crucial to tackle these molds head-on with two readily available ingredients. We’ll guide you on how to use them effectively.
Understanding Mold Infestation in Homes
No home, old or new, is immune to mold. The key is understanding and addressing the root cause: moisture. Identifying and treating the source of moisture is essential, whether it’s poor ventilation, rainwater intrusion, water damage, leaks, or inadequate sealing in showers and walls.
Preventive Measures Against Mold
Reducing indoor humidity is vital. Daily habits can help combat mold:
Ventilation is Key: Even if your home doesn’t have a moisture problem, airing out your house for 45 minutes daily can prevent mold growth. If natural ventilation isn’t enough, consider mechanical ventilation.
Avoid Indoor Clothes Drying: Drying clothes inside can exacerbate moisture issues.
Seal Cracks and Insulate: Addressing cracks and insulating your home can prevent mold, especially in winter.
