Is Black Mold Damaging Your Home?

Finding black mold in your home is a distressing event for any homeowner. It’s a dangerous growth that can take a lot of time, money, and energy to completely remove. The process of removal needs to happen as soon as potential mold has been spotted in your home. In today’s blog, we’ll take a closer look at the signs that your home is being damaged. Then we’ll discuss the steps to remove it.

Black Mold Sign #1: Wall Stains

The first sign that black mold has entered your home is ugly spots on walls and other surfaces. Mold is a fungus that will discolor walls. It’s important to have a mold test performed as soon as possible because there’s a good chance there’s more. Mold spores spread throughout your home and can spread quickly–as quickly as 24-48 hours of moisture. If you see this sign, call an expert immediately.

Sign #2: Musty Smells

The second sign of black mold in your home is a lingering smell. Mold smells musty and that smell can permeate throughout your home easily. While the smell might be annoying, the bigger risk factor here involves breathing it in. Toxic mold has been shown to lead to a variety of health and environmental concerns. We’ll take a closer look at the health risks in the next section.

Black Mold Sign #3: Sickness and Allergic Reactions

The third sign of black mold infestation in your home involves your own health and wellness. Mold-related symptoms are not the same for each person and will vary depending on your home. Inhaling mold spores has been shown to cause or exacerbate respiratory conditions such as asthma. While not as severe, exposure can also lead to symptoms that mimic seasonal allergies. These include sneezing, watery or itchy eyes, cough, and other cold symptoms. The bottom line: take your health seriously and have your home inspected quickly. The longer that you’re exposed to these irritants, the harder it will be to get back to full health.
