<h2 class = 'uawtitle'>The Hidden Danger Of Indoor Mold</h2><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawbyline'>by Peter Daas</div><div class='uawarticle'><br />If you have a place in your home where there is humidity, where it is damp or where walls feel moist, there's a serious chance that you're experiencing a mold problem. Indoor mold problems are a serious health risk. Serious exposure to mold can cause a variety of health problems. Oftentimes, people do not take it as serious as they should. Molds can have desastrous effects on the respiratory system, lungs and your nervous system. <br />
<br />
Everyday, we get exposed to mold. Most of it is harmless. Some seasons are worse than others for people that do experience frequent problems with mold, but most of the times, we don't even notice the mold spores flying around. But when mold spores land in a humid spot, they start reproducing, thus creating a mold spot. If not treated in an early stage, the mold spot will continue to grow and the health risks will increase by the day.<br />
<br />
It's not easy to get rid of mold. Mold prevention starts and ends with humidity. Make sure that indoor humidity stays low to prevent the forming of mold (around 50% or lower). You can measure your indoor humidity with equipment you can get at basically any hardware store. Do not make the common mistake of just painting over a mold spot if you discover it. Because of the dampness, the mold will only resurface and probably become even a bigger problem. If you discover mold, you should make sure to clean it thoroughly and completely. Scrub it off and make sure there are no spots left. If you leave spots of mold, they will multiply again.<br />
<br />
If absorbent materials get moldy, such as absorbent drywall, cardboard, carpeting or furniture, it's better to throw it away completely. If the surface is absorbent, it's extremely hard to get rid of mold totally. Keep in mind that whenever you remove mold, wear a respirator and rubber gloves. These safety measures prevent damage to your health during the cleaning process. Cleaning a small mold spot is not a very big risk, but if you happen to get exposed to massive mold, it can cause serious problems.</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br />
