Avoiding the growth of Mold in Homes

The growth of mold in homes can be a huge nuisance to the residents. Not only can the growth of mold lead to expensive repair cost, but they can also produce allergens and irritants and in rare cases toxins that can affect your health. Most of the homes suffer with mold growth during the winters due to the humid weather.
The growth of mold can lead to more problems if not tackled on time. The logical solution would be to prevent the growth of mold.

To prevent the growth of mold you will first have to control the moisture in your homes to make your homes resistant to mold growth. Here are a couple of steps you can try:

Check your homes – Inspect your homes for any signs that can lead to the growth of mold in future.  For example, you can check for any leaks in the roof or plumbing, water stains on the walls, etc. If you find any problems like these, have them repaired immediately. Sure it’ll cost you a little, but it’ll save you from paying a lot more in case of mold growth problems in future. 

Make sure your home is ventilated – if your home is not well ventilated it will prevent proper airflow. This can lead to excess moisture appearing on your walls, windows and floors. You can prevent this by opening the doors and windows of your home during the day to let the fresh air enter your homes and prevent the growth of moisture. Make sure to keep a room ventilated while performing normal activities like cooking, laundry etc. as these everyday processes can also contribute to growth of mold due to the moisture created in the environment.
 
Check your Appliances – Your everyday use of your appliances might also be contributing to the growth of mold in your homes. You’re a/c units and dehumidifiers must be checked and cleaned to prevent them from producing a humid environment in your homes which can later lead to the growth of mold.

Target wet areas of your home - The wetter areas in your homes are more prone to the growth of mold. Prevent these situations from arising by finding any leaking areas in your homes like leaking walls or dripping pipes in your basement and get them repaired.
