Mold Remediation
It is important to determine the extent of mold contamination. If the area of mold contamination is small and well defined, mold clean-up can be done by the homeowner (use Mold Remediation Kit™). If the mold problem is extensive, (e.g., mold is between the walls or under the floor) a professional mold remediation will be required. If in doubt, consult a mold control specialist (Mold Busters™).

How to Remova Mold ?
Mold Control requires the full control of moisture. Roof, wall, (protect with Neoguard™) and plumbing leaks must be repaired and the area thoroughly dried. Mold Contaminated material must be cleaned with Teflex™ or removed. Mold spores can be eliminated by treating with Teflex™. It is important to wear personal mold protective equipment, especially gloves, eye protection, and a good dust mask when handling mold contaminated material and mold clean-up.

Midew Removal
Mildew and Mold requires large amounts of water to grow indoors. Mildew may be found in areas that have been flooded, where roofs or walls leak, or where plumbing leaks create a wet environment. Often such wet areas are well hidden and mold contamination may not be readily visible, yet can be extensive. Most homes have areas where warm moist air comes in contact with a cooler outside wall or window allowing condensation to form. This is also an area where mold may form. Mold and mildew growth is often visible and less extensive.

Do It Yourself Mold Removal
Testing for Mold is very expensive; the results are difficult to interpret and often inconclusive. We recommend using do it yourself Mold and Mildew Remediation Kit™.

Fungi are a class of organism that includes yeasts, molds, mildews, and mushrooms. Fungi, other than mushrooms, live as single cells or as threadlike structures known as hyphae. Fungi reproduce through the production of spores. Spores can enter the air (be aerosolized); therefore, humans can come in contact with spores through skin and respiratory exposure. Fungi can produce secondary metabolites which include antibiotics (penicillin) and mycotoxins. These toxins may adversely impact human health. Some other metabolites are volatile organic compounds that cause musty, moldy smells. Fungi require water to grow and can tolerate a wide range of temperatures. Spores of wet mold do not easily enter the air. However, dry mold-contaminated material that is disturbed allows spores to be aerosolized resulting in the possibility of human exposure.
