What is Mold?

Molds are funguses and they can be found everywhere; both outdoors and in. They thrive in moist, warm environments and feed on organic matter; tree stumps, fallen leaves, dead or dying plants, and even decaying fauna. Molds reproduce by releasing spores into the air. These spores land on surfaces, and if the conditions are right, they begin to grow and feed on whatever they’ve taken up residence on. As they feed, the digest their host, which is beneficial to the ecosystem; the digested matter is deposited back into the ground and fertilizes the soil. As mold spores drift through the air, they can make their way indoors through various points of entry. They travel inside through open windows, open doors, cracks and holes in foundations, siding, and roofing; mold spores can even hitch a ride on your shoes and clothing while you’re outside.

Why is Indoor Mold Dangerous?

Outdoors, mold is quite beneficial; it’s when it makes its way inside that the fungus can become a problem. Mold spores attach to materials that are fibrous in nature; items that contain fibers. Virtually every item inside your home or business – from the materials it’s constructed of to the things that fill it – are fibrous; walls, ceilings, roofing, cement, wood, paper, upholstery, and even glass. Once mold spores are in place, they lie dormant until the conditions are right; as soon as they are exposed to moisture and warmth, they begin to grow and feed on the materials they’re attached to. If left untreated, the damage cause by mold can be extensive; in fact, at All Star Mold Removal, we’ve seen properties that have been completely decimated by mold. Mold inside your home or business continues to spread by releasing spores. These spores can affect your indoor air quality and cause a number of health conditions. Respiratory infections, allergic reactions, headaches, fevers, fatigue, and mood changes are just some of the side effects that can be attributed with mold exposure.

Where Does Mold Grow in Tallahassee?

As mentioned, mold thrives in warm, moist environments. Because Tallahassee has a semi-tropical climate and since there are several bodies of water throughout the city, it’s the prime location for mold. Indoors, mold can be found virtually anywhere. Some of the most common places where mold growth occurs include:
• Ceilings
• Walls
• Floors
• Carpets
• Windowsills
• Eaves and overhangs
• Gutters
• Basements
• Attics
• Bathrooms
• Kitchens
Mold can even be found in areas where you would least expect it; behind wallpaper, in insulation, and even in paint.
