WHAT IS MOULD AND WHY IS IT DANGEROUS?

What Is Mould and Why Is It Dangerous?

Mould is a type of fungus that grows in damp, humid, and poorly ventilated environments. Once present, it spreads rapidly and releases microscopic spores into the air. These spores can lead to a wide range of health problems, especially for individuals with asthma, allergies, or compromised immune systems.

Health Risks Associated with Mould Exposure:

  • Respiratory issues (coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath)

  • Nasal and sinus congestion

  • Irritation of the eyes, skin, and throat

  • Allergic reactions

  • Long-term exposure may result in serious lung conditions and chronic respiratory problems

WHERE IS MOULD COMMONLY FOUND?

Mould thrives in areas with excess moisture or water damage—especially in spaces with poor ventilation. Identifying and addressing these problem areas is essential to preventing mould growth and protecting your property.

Common Locations in Homes and Buildings:

  • Bathrooms, kitchens, and basements where humidity levels are often high

  • Around windows, plumbing fixtures, and pipe leaks

  • HVAC systems and ductwork, which can circulate spores throughout the building

  • Attics with inadequate ventilation.

  • Behind walls or under flooring affected by leaks, flooding, or moisture intrusion.

  • Porous materials like carpets, insulation, drywall, and ceiling tiles.
