Mold Yuck!

This time of year is notorious for the growth of mold in your homes. With rainy weather and warmer days mold can grow quickly and unnoticed. It can enter homes through windows, doors, heating and ventilation systems, small cracks in walls and it can even attach itself to you, your pets and so on.
Exposer to mold can cause havoc on your healthy and well being. Especially in those who already suffer with respiratory issues or have low immune systems. I can cause asthma, eye irritation, coughing and wheezing, stuffiness, irritated throat, and so on.

You can control the grown of mold by taking a few simple steps:

* Thoroughly cleaning and drying after flooding;
* Promptly fixing leaky roofs, windows, and pipes;
* Ventilating shower, laundry, and cooking areas.
* Controlling humidity levels by using a dehumidifier
