How Does Mold Impact Your Health?<\/p><\/div>\n

Mold is unsightly, but its presence indoors has implications for more serious considerations than aesthetics. Here are compelling reasons why Manhattan mold removal is necessary to prevent health problems<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Mold Plus Moisture: A Formula for Illness<\/strong><\/p>\n

Water is essential for mold growth, so damp places<\/a> such as bathrooms and basements are vulnerable to infestations. These damp spaces may also be filled with dust mites, bacteria, products resulting from mold breakdown and particulates from the surface materials where mold grows.<\/p>\n

In 2004, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) issued a comprehensive report including findings of a relationship between time spent\u00a0in damp indoor areas and development of upper respiratory symptoms<\/a> such as wheezing and shortness of breath. IOM concluded these damp spaces constitute a public heath problem.<\/p>\n

Dangers of Mold Exposure<\/strong><\/p>\n

Authors of other publications have been even more definitive in recognizing mold exposure as the source of illnesses including:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Immune responses such as hypersensitivity pneumonitis, a condition in which lungs become inflamed from inhaling mold spores<\/p>\n

\u2022 Aspergillosis<\/a> and other lung infections, particularly in people with an existing lung illness<\/p>\n

\u2022 Eye, nose and throat irritation<\/p>\n

Subsequent studies found a correlation between mold exposure and respiratory symptoms in young children as well as new-onset asthma in employees working in a moldy, water-damaged office.<\/p>\n
