Published: Thursday, April 29, 2010

There are quite a few ways mold can be detected. Usually you can identify it from a musty odor, allergies, watermarks on the ceiling and/or walls are often telltale signs. Often times bleach and water is good enough to get rid of mold in the house, the only problem you might have is that there is now way to guarantee that the mold will not come back. To help you try and prevent mold from growing, we have provided a list of tips to help you.

Mold Preventative Tips

  • Any and all wet materials need to be dried as soon as possible. Typically, mold will grow within about two days. Just think about it this way... Have you ever put a load of laundry in the wash only to forget it until the next morning? If you have, you might have noticed that yucky sour smell. That is just how quick mold can set in.

  • Take a few minutes to clean, disinfect and dry all surfaces. Pay close attention to areas around any sinks or floors that get wet often.

  • Install an exhaust fan in all of the bathrooms of your home. Run the exhaust fan during and after showers. This will help to minimize the moisture level in the bathroom and could help to possibly prevent mold from growing.

  • Check all of your pipes for leaks and seepage. Pipes can disintegrate over time, so be sure to inspect them. If need be, replace any old pipes if they show any signs of being dilapidated.

  • Before you put your clothing away, make sure that they are completely dry and clean.

  • Amp up the air flow in the house. Pull furniture away from the walls and open the closet doors. This will help air to circulate better throughout the house.

  • Install storm/thermal pane windows and wall insulation to help keep walls warm while helping to limit condensation.
