Hidden Mold

​

Most people think they'll know if they have mold. They'll see it, smell it, or notice obvious water damage. Unfortunately, that's often not the case. Hidden mold is incredibly common, and we regularly find it behind drywall, inside HVAC systems, under flooring, around plumbing, or behind cabinets and appliances in homes that look perfectly clean.

 

Mold produces mycotoxins, and some species also release microscopic particles into the air. These can circulate throughout a home, exposing people even when the mold itself is hidden. While not everyone reacts the same way, people with asthma, allergies, autoimmune conditions, Lyme or other tick-borne illnesses, MCAS, CIRS, chronic fatigue, and other chronic health issues are often more affected.

 

Many people spend years trying to figure out what's wrong with their health without ever considering the environment they spend the most time in. Sometimes the problem isn't just what's happening inside the body. It's what's happening inside the home.
