Mold is Serious Business. Find a Restoration Company

First, let's go over a quick primer on mold. Every kind of mold is a fungus, and share biology with mushrooms and athlete's foot, for example. The mold that is toxic to you and your family is rare in the fungus world, meaning most kinds you find in your house or business aren't dangerous. However, some toxic molds are dangerous, so any mold in your home or business must be cleaned up and completely removed.

That means contacting a mold damage repair company is the best plan. If you see mold, there is probably more trapped in drywall and crevices and elsewhere.

Check licensing and certifications before you hire a mold damage cleanup service. The State Business Licensing Division is a good place to get started, and you should check for approval by groups such as as the Contractor Connection, Restoration Industry Association and the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration. You might also make sure the company knows and follows federal mold cleanup recommendations whether your mold is in a business or a residence.

You should remove any mold growth you find to prevent further mold damage, and do it now. If you don't, mold growths will continue to feast on your home or business and can destroy your possessions.
