First, let's go over a quick primer on mold. Every kind of mold is a fungus, and share biology with mushrooms and athlete's foot, for example. The mold that is dangerous to you and your family is relatively rare in the fungi world, meaning most kinds aren't dangerous. However, some molds are dangerous, so any mold in your home or business must be mitigated and completely removed.

That means contacting a mold damage repair company is almost always a good idea. If you see mold growth, there is probably more trapped in drywall and crevices and elsewhere.

Before you hire any company, check that they are licensed and registered properly and that they are approved by trade organizations such as the Contractor Connection, Restoration Industry Association and the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration. You may also make sure the company knows and follows federal mold cleanup recommendations whether your mold is in a business or a residence.

You need to mitigate any mold you come across to prevent further mold damage, and do it now. If not, mold damage will keep eating on your home or business and can destroy your possessions.
