About Mould

Mould in the home can usually be found in damp, dark or steam filled areas e.g. bathroom or kitchen, cluttered storage areas, recently flooded areas, basement areas, plumbing spaces, areas with poor ventilation and outdoors in humid environments.

The elderly, pregnant women, infants, and young children, people with allergies, chronic respiratory illness and/or chemical sensitivities and those with weakened immune systems are most likely to experience health effects from mould.

Symptoms caused by exposure to mould include watery, itchy eyes, a chronic cough, headaches or migraines, difficulty breathing, rashes, tiredness, sinus problems, nasal blockages, and frequent sneezing.

Various practices can be followed to mitigate mould issues in buildings, the most important of which is to reduce moisture levels that can facilitate mould growth. Removal of affected materials after the source of moisture has been reduced and/or eliminated may be necessary for remediation.
