Molds are a natural part of our environment and are always present inside and outside. Human sensitivity to mold varies. Routine cleaning, ventilation, stopping water leaks and managing humidity levels will reduce and help control mold.

Testing for mold is not needed for appropriate cleanup methods. If you can see mold or if there is a musty or eary odor, you have mold. The moisture source needs to be stopped and the mold safely cleaned up.
