Temperatures in Florida are steadily averaging in the 90’s, and can even go above 100 in the summer months. Mold growth thrives in warm, damp areas, making Florida prime real estate for mold bacteria. Interior water damage, combined with a lack of power and warm exterior temperatures, can cause mold growth in as little as a day.
Though nearly all mold damage inside your home is dangerous, certain types of bacteria can be deadly. Potentially mold sensitive people include:
- Newborns
- Elderly
- Persons with compromised immune systems
Protect your family from mold related illnesses by having a mold remediation company inspect your property as soon as possible. Just because you cannot see mold growth does not mean it is not there. Mold companies come in and test your property at no cost to you, and bill the insurance company directly. This allows the mold company to get paid for their services by your insurance company without having to inconvenience you, the homeowner.
If you suffered from interior water damage as a result of Hurricane Irma, do not wait to have your home inspected for mold.
