Keys to Control Mold?

The key to mold control is moisture control.

• If mold is a problem in your home, you should clean up the mold promptly and fix the water problem.
• It is important to dry water-damaged areas and items within 24-48 hours to prevent mold growth.  SERVPRO of North Central San Antonio specializes in moisture control and remediating mold.

Molds produce tiny spores to reproduce. Mold spores flow through the indoor and outdoor air continually. When mold spores land on a wet spot indoors, they may begin growing and digesting whatever they are growing on in order to survive. There are molds that can grow on wood, paper, carpet, furniture, and foods. When excessive moisture or water accumulates indoors, mold growth will often occur, particularly if the moisture problem remains undiscovered or un-addressed. There is no practical way to eliminate ALL mold and mold spores in the indoor environment; the way to control indoor mold growth is to control moisture.  Call SERVPRO of North Central San Antonio today if you suspect mold growth in your Bexar county home.
