MOLD INSPECTION SERVICE

There are essentially thousands of types of mold in the atmosphere. The bright side is that over the centuries, mold and mildews have actually helped generate some remarkable creations such as penicillin, breads, cheese, and also certain liquors. The trouble is that mold and mildews recreate by sending spores. When they land on a damp area, these spores trigger as well as grow.

This mold then expands more spores and so on. The mold spreads and spreads. Outside this is not necessarily a negative circumstance due to the fact that mold belongs to the all-natural process of degeneration. It belongs to the reason that leaves that missed the fall raking will have deteriorated into dirt by spring. Nevertheless, when mold horns in a home as a result of an existing wetness problem, it can get ugly.

Mold when left unremediated, can generate a strong moldy odor, have a furry look, and also be mushy in appearance. Not an eye-catching sight.

Air Sampling - Mold Inspection

The purpose of air sampling is to determine the type and amount of airborne contaminants present. Air sampling is performed when the presence of mold is suspect, due to musty odors and allergies but cannot be determined through the visual inspection. Air sampling is performed on both the indoor and outdoor air for a comparison to determine where problems exist or originate. The indoor sample is taken when the AC or heating systems are in operation to ensure an effective and accurate test.

Tape/Swab Sampling - Mold Inspection

Tape/swab samples are typically collected from visually moldy areas of an interior area using a sterile swab. This type of test is done to determine the type of mold infestation.
