Mold: Tips to Counteracting the Effects of Mold<\/p><\/div>\n

Mold and moisture go hand-in-hand like snow and ice or sand and sea; it’s a natural combination and not unusual to find mold in any home.<\/p>\n

About Black Mold<\/strong><\/p>\n

NYC mold remediation is something you have control over, which is a good thing as exposure to it can be unhealthy. It can cause sneezing, chronic fatigue, rashes, coughing, headaches, and eye irritation.<\/p>\n

Black mold is a spore-forming fungus<\/a> affecting multiple types of surfaces. When colonies form, they may have a greenish or grayish tint and they’re usually accompanied with a musty odor.<\/p>\n

Mold can thrive in all types of conditions, any season, and any environment. Bathroom showers, basements, HVAC systems, and any area that may experience water leakage is a prime location for mold to grow.<\/p>\n

Natural Remedies to Deal with Black Mold<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here are a few steps to take when dealing with mold.<\/p>\n

– First, find the source that is creating the moisture and fix it.<\/p>\n

– Use a spray bottle to apply a mixture of two cups water and two teaspoons tea tree oil. Pine oil is another option. Spray and let sit.<\/p>\n

– Baking soda is another natural remedy using the same spray bottle application of two cups water combined with one teaspoon of baking soda. Shake, apply to affected areas, scrub with a brush, rinse, and reapply mixture. Let it dry.<\/p>\n

– Spray white distilled vinegar – undiluted – on the mold. Let it sit.<\/p>\n

– Bleach is another option, but bleach fumes an cause their own problems when inhaled.<\/p>\n

– Wear goggles and a protective nose mask when cleaning.<\/p>\n
