To test your house for mold toxicity, you can start with a visual inspection for any signs of mold growth and a musty smell, especially in areas prone to moisture. For a more thorough assessment, it’s advisable to hire a professional mold inspection service. These experts use specialized equipment like moisture meters, air sampling tests, and surface sampling to detect mold spores and mycotoxins in your home. They can also identify the specific type of mold and the extent of the infestation, guiding appropriate remediation steps.
If you are buying a new home, insist on having a mold inspection done prior to purchase. Mold can be hidden in inaccessible areas not visible. A common area is HVAC systems, roofs, walls and floors.
If you believe mold exposure is affecting your health, please seek advice from a knowledgable doctor who specializes in treating mold.
