Introduction
Mold spores can provoke allergic reactions in some people, and they can also cause structural damage. It's important to treat mold as soon as it's detected. Some forms of mold can be toxic. If you think you have black mold you may need to call in a professional. -
Step 1: Control Moisture in the Air
Moisture and darkness create fertile breeding ground for mold spores. Use an air conditioner or a dehumidier to pull moisture out of the air, making sure to empty the condensation reservoir (if there is one) frequently and to clean the filter at least once a week. Make sure you have an operational exhaust fan in the bathroom to help avoid bathroom mold. -
