He shared insights on the most common types of residential mold, as well as the conditions that are most favorable for its growth. In addition, we spoke to Elías Rodríguez, the Deputy Director of Public Affairs for Region 2 of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), regarding testing guidance and the role that moisture plays in the development of mold growth.

Older research indicates that spending time in damp indoor spaces is related to respiratory symptoms, including those of asthma. There are other molds that aren’t found indoors as often as those listed above, but you may still find them in your home. These include:One of the best defenses against the development of mold and mildew is preventing the conditions that are conducive to the growth of fungus, such as warm, damp environments. The Airthings Indoor Air Quality Monitoring System includes the Airthings Wave, Wave Mini, and Hub to keep tabs on your home’s humidity, temperature, radon levels, and VOCs (volatile organic compounds).

It is found on stored cereals and hay. In a house, this mould is the green-blue mould found on stale bread, fruits and nuts and it is the mould that is used in the production of blue/green mouldy cheese.

Mould is a problem that needs to be taken seriously. It is especially dangerous for families with children, asthmatics, those with a weakened immune system and older people. But mould can pose a serious threat to healthy adults too.Resolve any issues causing mold growth, and throw away anything affected by mold or contributing to mold growth that you can’t clean. This kit only offers one testing method: Using a swab, you collect samples of mold and place them into two collection trays. Then you release a special liquid onto the sample and your results will show up shortly thereafter. Overall, this testing method is very easy to use and requires little preparation. The kit itself is more expensive than the top three products, but the fee for lab results is average.

Were here to help you and apart from our technical ability(see accreditations)our worst accreditation is my personal diagnosis in USA of mould illness CIRS causing brain atrophy and associated CFS, Bipolar, ADHD etc. (See my treatment failures) and incidentally how UK treatment was successful.If you suspect your home may be the cause of poor health Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome, (CIRS) we can help in identifying possible causation. CIRS often includes symptoms of chronic fatigue, brain fog, changes in menstrual cycle, early menopause, skin, hair and gut problems. ( Australian Govt confirmation) Mold exposure can cause other symptoms, however. According to the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, it can cause the following types of health problems: Allergy and irritation People are exposed to small amounts of mold all the time in our everyday lives, usually without noticeable effects.
