Home owners today are more concerned than ever about indoor air quality. The spores from mold and mildew have been shown to negatively affect the allergies of the average person. Relief and improvement of indoor air quality requires only a phone call to your hometown Servpro professional.
The need for mold and mildew cleaning has been around since Biblical times. Leviticus chapter 14:39-50 contains the first recorded directions for cleanup of mold and mildew.
Some mold or mildew may be in small enough quantities to require minimal cleanup. Other mold sourcing from water damage, leaky pipes, toilet and sewer backup or other emergencies may require more extensive remediation services.
The Environmental Protection Agency states that mold growth may be a problem after flooding. EPA's offers a fact sheet: Flood Cleanup: Avoiding Indoor Air Quality Problems - and discusses steps to take when cleaning. The EPA offers expert mold and mildew information at their website: EPA Mold Resources
