Sometimes your home can be your biggest health threat; a professional mold inspection can be the first step in preventative care for your home.
Molds produce allergens (substances that cause allergic reactions), irritants, and in some cases, potentially toxic substances (mycotoxins).Inhaling or touching mold or mold spores may cause allergic reactions including:
- asthma attacks
- irritation of the eyes, skin,nose,throat, and lungs
- haver-fever-type symptoms
- sneezing
- runny nose
- red eyes
- skin rash (dermatitis)
- and more
Long-term exposure to mold can prove dangerous to your whole family. A mold inspection is the first step to getting your home clear of molds. Mold inspection costs vary widely depending on the size of property, extent of the mold inspection, number of mold samples, and other factors. A mold inspection done by HomeMD includes searching your home or business from top-to-bottom to identify dangerous mold infestations.
