Part 2, how did we do? Learn anything new?

When it comes to common household nuisances, none are more concerning than mold. While mold is unpleasant to look at, it can also pose a serious risk to you and your family's health. But how do you know if those spots or smells are coming from dreaded black mold growth - or something else? 

Here are some of the top signs you may have mold growing in your home and need to order mold mitigation services immediately:

• Musty odors or mildew smells
• Black spots or stains on walls, ceiling, or floor
• Water leaks or pooling water
• Cracks in paint that let moisture into the backboards
• Sagging ceilings and walls
• Rubbery, sticky substances on floors, walls, or ceilings

Mold in your home can cause health effects because it often contains bacteria and spores.

If you notice signs of mold growth in your house, you should immediately contact the team at SERVPRO to discover if mold mitigation and mold removal services are needed.
