Welcome to New Mexico Mold Removal

Mold can spread very quickly and it becomes worse when you try to remove them by rubbing it or air-spraying against it. So, DIY methods such as wiping mold down using a bleach will not work. The reason why you shouldn’t use bleach is that bleach does not bleach does not kill mold just turns it white and will actually make it spread as you are disrupting the mold spores.

Trying to remove mold by yourself can disrupt it and make the situation even worse. So, hiring a mold removal company in Albuquerque is an ideal option to remove mold as they follow the IICRC mold removal guidelines which the industry uses as a standard to remove mold correctly.

According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control reports that there is sufficient evidence to link indoor mold exposure to respiratory problems among generally healthy people. Continuous exposure to mold can cause more serious conditions.

Some of the health problems caused by mold growth include,

• Stuffiness
• Itchiness
• Runny noses
• Wheezing
• Fever
• Shortness of breath
• Eye irritation
• Watery eyes
• Fatigue
• Depression
• Asthma attacks
• Chronic sinus infections
• Fungal infections, if mycotoxins are present

In areas damaged by flood, mold can start to grow in as few as 24 hours. In some cases, it can also take more than a week or two to develop. Under ideal conditions, mold grow for between 48 and 72 hours.

Mold is noticed to grow quickly in some materials such as carpets. Hence, it is important to dry out the area and remediate flood damage quickly to avoid mold infestation.

Mold is found everywhere especially in water damaged areas. Every time we open a window or doors, we let new mold spores into our home. Mold grows quickly when there are moisture problems resulting in building materials being constantly dampened by water. In places, where the humidity level is as low as 60% it paves way to lots of mold growth.

Other important factors that contribute to mold growth are poor air circulation and inadequate ventilation. It contribute to excess moisture buildup in isolated areas, then capillary action and equilibrium can move the moisture and the mold spreads with it. Modern building materials are likely to encourage mold growth if they become exposed to the right conditions of high humidity levels, condensation, or water intrusions. These materials include,

• Gypsum wallboard
• Acoustic ceiling tiles
• Wallpaper
• Plywood
• Fiberboard and
• Particleboard
