Mold spores typically are present in every room, with the average mold spore count being anywhere from 200-700 mold spores. Mold spores are typically harmless, however, an increased presence can deteriorate air quality and cause problems. While some may think mold is harmless and they don’t need mold remediation in Orlando, mold does come with health risks. Exposure to mold can cause delayed or immediate allergic reactions. It can cause irritation to eyes, mouth, throat, and cause difficulty breathing. Mold becomes a problem when it begins forming mold colonies.
Mold colonies can begin forming in as little as 24-72 hours. Colonies really become a problem because they can cause further damage and further spread of mold. These colonies also continuously shoot mold spores into the air, causing a spike in the air, reducing air quality in affected rooms.
