Mold grows indoors when spores in the air land on wet surfaces caused by roof leaks, plumbing problems, ventilation issues, and other moisture sources. Molds produce allergens and in some cases toxic substances that can cause reactions in people with allergies and asthma. Mold spores grow when moisture is present so keeping your home dry will prevent a problem in the first place. After cleaning up mold, if the water problem isn't solved, mold will return. It is important to accurately assess a mold problem and have clean-up and moisture problems handled professionally.
