Mold is an organic being, and is the most harmful thing you can have growing in your house. It is a known allergen and can cause respiratory problems, and allergy flare ups in those who inhale it. The kitchen happens to be one of the most common haunts of mold because of the constant availability of food and water. Here are some ways you can keep your kitchen safe of mold and mildew.
Always keep your drains clean. Your drains always attract spores because of the dampness and the food that gets stuck down the pipe. Pour bleach or drain cleaner down the drain to clean it. A mixture of baking soda and vinegar too can help kill spores. Use lemon rind cut up into pieces or ice cubes to remove mold spores from your garbage disposal. Clean out your trash can regularly, and never leave it standing with food inside for more than 24 hours. Wipe wet surfaces immediately, and dry with an absorbent towel. If you have a carpet in your kitchen, take care to keep it dry. If there is a mold infestation on your carpet, they may be no other option, but to get rid of that section.

mold in wall in bedroom. Needs to have drywall removed (partially or completely), mold remediation done and the wall will then need to be insulated and re-drywalled. |
We noticed a leak in our master bathroom shower. Water has leaked for an unknown period (we just bought the house) into the hallway and possible traveled into the bedroom across the hall. When plumbers came to repair the shower, they found that there is black mold behind the shower walls. I would like someone to survey the damage and locate any more mold that has grown due to this water damage. I am concerned it may even be under the carpet where the water has leaked. |
