Seven simple mold prevention tips can save you thousands in mold remediation. 

Mold is a very important part of the world we live in. What we don’t need is mold growing in our homes. The types of mold that can cause damage to your home and your health can be easily be prevented from growing. Here are seven simple MOLD PREVENTION TIPS that will save you thousands of dollars.

1. Keep humidity levels as low as you can—no higher than 50%–all day long. An air conditioner or dehumidifier will help you keep the level low.

2. Be sure your home has enough ventilation. Use exhaust fans which vent outside your home in the kitchen and bathroom. Make sure your clothes dryer vents outside your home.

3. Fix any leaks in your home’s roof, walls, or plumbing so mold does not have moisture to grow.

4. Clean up and dry out your home thoroughly and quickly (within 24–48 hours) after flooding.

5. Add mold inhibitors to paints before painting.

6. Clean bathrooms with mold-killing products. Call us for several great tips on products that will save you money and are better for your health.
