The first toxic mold
Mold spores are everywhere. The spores need water, the optimum temperature, food (In the form of porous material), and the right amount of air.
Unfortunately, common household problems can cause optimal conditions for growth mold – and turn your home into a Petri dish. Leaks, structural damage, flooding, poor ventilation, insulation and improperly installed, create the conditions Moulding breeding. Basements and attics are particularly vulnerable.
Most people have heard of the "black mold" (or Stachybotrys atra Stachybotrys chartarum) and health problems it can cause. Not all black molds is Stachybotrys mold is true – but any mold in your house is bad for your health.
People suffering from asthma or allergies, children, babies, the elderly and people already suffering from health problems face problems are more acute risk from health problems related to mold exposure.
Symptoms from mold exposure include:
# Allergies
# Asthma

# Immune system disorders

The fact that no is visible, do not mean it is not harmful. Toxic mold syndrome, sometimes called sick building syndrome, can make people sick. Although there is no mold can be seen, felt or smelled the building itself causes symptoms to mold exposure.
If any mold is visible, you can be sure that there is even more mold. The spores can remain dormant at the moment, but it is important to destroy them so they do not have problems later. If you suspect a mold problem, you should have mold inspection and testing by a mold inspector trained and certified.
