Mold and Mildew

Mold and Mildew are very common sights among households. From the bathroom to the basement, many houses encounter certain degrees of a mold or mildew cases from time to time. Mold is a type of fungi and serves a very important purpose in nature, breaking down various plant debris and other organic materials. But it becomes a problem in unwanted areas such as our homes.  Moisture is essential to its growth, thus we find mold and mildew in areas with the highest moisture content and water usage. Mold is also very adaptable and can grow on nearly any surface.

Mildew is a substance produced by mold fungi. It has an appearance of a white or often bluish-green film on an object. Molds and mildews have an unfavorable odor and most cause considerable damage if left untreated. They discolor materials and eat away at them until they are damaged and falling apart.  Most molds are not hazardous to your health; however, there are a few species of mold that produce toxins that can lead to severe health concerns and issues such as fatigue, nausea, irritation to the lungs and eyes, and headaches.
