Mold - Hides

This photo shows the hidden mold in a crawl space.

At times, mold is hard to detect. 

What usually happens is that mold grows in a place that never dried out, like in this particular home mold was in a crawl space. A combination of moisture, a warm temperature and an organic food source create the perfect environment for mold to grow quickly. In Mississippi, we have such high humidity, this makes it a perfect spot for mold growth.  

Mold spores are everywhere and can easily get into homes and businesses. 

Here are some tips to avoid mold growth in your home:

-Do not allow standing water in or around your home

-Use exhaust fans in your home

-Leave the AC Unit running when you are not at home

-If you notice any strange smells, please get it check out immediately
