What Are the Effects of Mold & Mildew in a Home?
Mold and mildew left to grow in a home can taint the air quality and provoke ill health effects in many people. Condensation on windows, saturated wall materials and mildewed items stored in basements all represent fungal breeding grounds. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advises homeowners to consider all levels of mold exposure dangerous and to remove any visible growths. Individuals with mold allergies may experience chronic symptoms of perennial allergic rhinitis unless they frequently clean allergenic molds out of the home environment.
