How To Spot Mold In Your New Home What To Do
About It?

• Mold is practically present everywhere. It is a
  type of fungus that grows in damp and dark
  places. However, the one place that we dont want
  to ever see it is in our homes. Buying a new
  house is always exciting, but imagine the horror
  of moving into a house, only to find out that it
  has a mold problem. This is why it is important
  to get a complete home inspection done while
  moving in. But how do you know that your home
  needs an inspection? Are there any signs that you
  should be paying attention to before getting the
  mold cleaning companies involved? Well there are
  a few signs that indicate the presence of mold in
  your house and they are as follows
• Visible signs of mold
• This is one of the most obvious signs of mold
  infestation. Although mold varies in appearance,
  if you see a fuzzy growth on the walls or in the
  corner, it is time to call for reinforcement in
  the form of mold cleaning services.

• Musty or damp odor
• Giving your new house a sniff test is the easiest
  way to determine the presence of mold. Mold often
  smells musty and damp, and the smell is hard to
  ignore. If you notice an odor like that, have it
  taken care of with the help of mold cleaning
  services, before it becomes a major problem.
• Water leaks
• If there have been water leaks in the past, there
  is a good chance of mold being present in the
  damp corners of the house.

• Increase in the frequency of allergic reaction
  and sickness
• Most types of mold usually trigger an allergic
  reaction or illness in people. If symptoms like
  sneezing, wheezing, runny nose are persistent
  when you are indoors, call the mold removal
  experts in UAE.

• Mold is one word that is enough to make us all
  cringe. Not only do we never want to hear about
  mold growth, but also never want to see it grow
  in our house. However, mold spores are
  omnipresent and whenever they find moisture and
  an appropriate temperature, they thrive and grow.
  And while some fungi are beneficial for us, mold
  definitely isnt one of them. If you ask the mold
  removal experts in Dubai, they will tell you that
  mold can be classified into three categories
  allergenic, pathogenic, and toxic
• Allergenic mold
• This is one of the most commonly found molds.
  This is the type that triggers allergic reactions
  in a lot of people. It can be removed with the
  help of home disinfecting products but in case of
  critical infestation, a professional mold removal
  company should be contacted.
• Pathogenic mold
• Pathogenic molds cause infections and diseases.
  It especially affects the ones with compromised
  immunity. Large colonies are a health risk and
  should be handled by mold cleaning companies.

• Toxic mold
• Toxic mold produces poisonous chemicals known as
  mycotoxins. They are very lethal and require mold
  removal experts in Dubai to kill and dispose of
  them.
• Yes, there are home remedies to deal with a mold
  infestation, provided you wear protective gear
  and take all the necessary precautions. But when
  it comes to getting rid of the mold, the basic
  rule of thumb is that if the infestation covers a
  large area, hiring one of the mold removal
  companies is the best way to do it. This is due
  to the fact that resolving an issue involving a
  larger colony of mold requires exposure to strong
  chemicals and a systematic method to dispose of
  it. Professional mold removal experts in Dubai
  are equipped with the latest technology and are
  trained to tackle all kinds of situations.
  However, the one thing that you need to know is
  that mold removal does not guarantee that the
  mold will never grow back. If you want to get rid
  of it, mold remediation is the solution.
