Back to School! Yet, mold discovered in numerous schools not just in Florida, but also nationwide?
Back to school seems it us the same story year after year, especially in South Florida. Kids and students prepare themselves for a new year of education only to come back to school, and have experience and endure toxic mold. As officials scramble for mold removal and mold remediation services to clean up the mold before school starts, for some however, it is to late and the start of the school year will have to be delayed.
How does mold affect people?
Most people are sensitive to mold, with others being extremely allergic if they come in contact with certain types of mold. For most people, exposure to mold typically causes symptoms such as nasal stuffiness, eye irritation, wheezing, or skin irritation. Some people, such as those with serious allergies to mold or that have compromised immune systems, may have more severe reactions. Severe reactions may include dizziness, fever, shortness of breath, chronic respiratory illnesses, eye infections, extreme rashes and swelling, etc. Furthermore, there are certain types of toxic mold that will cause severe reactions in almost every person with enough prolonged exposure. For those that do not know, certain types of mold have directly contributed to many people dying.
As such, mold is an extremely serious hazard that needs to be dealt with immediately upon discovery. The longer you wait to remediate the mold, the larger the mold infestation becomes..

-Mold Clearance Testing-
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF A POST REMEDIATION MOLD CLEARANCE INSPECTION? The purpose of a clearance testing is to assure that the mold remediation was successfully and effectively completed and to confirm that the cleanup did not accidentally distribute high levels of moldy dust and debris into other building areas or into its mechanical systems such as heating or air conditioning systems. Just “testing” a building for mold is not nearly as reliable as an expert visual inspection.
