Microscopic mold spores naturally occur almost everywhere, both outdoors and indoors.  This makes it impossible to remove all mold from a home or a business.  Let's look at the following mold facts and consider if any apply to you or your home.

• Mold often produces a strong, musty odor and can lead you to possible mold problem areas.
• Mold is present almost everywhere, indoors and outdoors.
• Mold spores thrive on moisture and can quickly grow into colonies when exposed to water leading to produce allergens and irritants.
• Mold spores are microscopic and float in the air.  These spores can enter your home through windows, doors, or even hitch a ride on pets or clothing.
• Higher than normal indoor humidity can support mold growth.  Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent.
