The EPA states that potential health issues associated with mold exposure include allergic reactions, asthma, and other respiratory concerns. Molds can grow on almost any substance with the presence of moisture, including wood, paper, carpet, and foods. Do you know what is inside your home? Mold Magicians can determine the level of mold present in your home and the steps necessary to keep you and your family healthy.
Mold Is Natural & Contaminates Homes
Mold is a naturally occurring organism and a common household contaminate. Mold, its spores and associated toxins, was not a huge health concern in homes 30-40 years ago. However, due to homes being built much more air tight it now takes indoor air five times longer to cycle outside. The presence of mold isnt a new issue, but the fact that there are more optimum growing conditions has caused mold to be of much greater concern than it historically has been.
Billions of dollars worth of the food supply is destroyed by mold each year. If ingested, mold can cause digestive tract discomfort that is usually just written off as indigestion. This discomfort is caused by food that is contaminated with mold. The presence of mold in a home can cause a variety of symptoms that we typically associate with other illnesses. Some examples of these symptoms include: the common cold, ear infections, respiratory infections, allergic reactions, dizziness, sleeplessness and irritability.
Mold not only affects the respiratory and digestive system; the toxins that it produces can affect the female reproductive system as well. Many mycotoxins that are produced from mold are some of the most powerful toxins in nature. The worlds most powerful natural carcinogen is Aflatoxin which is produced by some molds. Neurotoxins are also produced by some molds and can cause tremors and depression along with other nervous system related symptoms. Many health problems can be solved by removing the source - mold.
With mold surfacing as a major health concern, there is a demand for well equipped, knowledgeable technicians who can solve the problems associated with mold.
Effectively Eliminating Mold
The most effective way of getting rid of mold is to locate and remove the sources of water and moisture that are present in the affected home. Like all living organisms, water is essential for the growth of mold. If you remove the water you remove the potential for mold growth.
At Mold Magicians we follow these same basic principles in treating your home for mold. We conduct an inspection of the entire home and use third party analysis of our in-home mold tests. Based on the inspection and the results of the mold tests, a plan to reduce mold to normal levels can be implemented. Often that plan includes the SafeTreat 3-Phase Mold Treatment Process. The SafeTreat process is comprised of non-toxic, botanical solutions used to spray and fog your home. The combination of the whole house inspection and the use of the SafeTreat process provides a complete treatment for mold.
