Increased Allergies
Many people are sensitive to mold as it can cause irritating and painful allergy symptoms. Sometimes, homeowners don’t realize that their home has been impacted by mold and don’t connect that the allergies are being caused by an interior mold problem. It’s important to assess areas of your home for excessive moisture, which can lead to mold growth. Allergy symptoms related to mold include sneezing, itching, coughing, sinus discomfort, wheezing, headaches, fatigue, and difficulty breathing. Getting immediate mold remediation in Shoreview MN is important for improving the indoor air quality in your home and minimizing the impact of mold-related allergies.
Hazardous Health Impacts
It’s important to consider that every person is impacted by mold in different ways. Mold toxicity can be apparent in homes that have had mold exposure and can impact residents in several ways. Headaches and migraines are potential impacts of mold toxicity as well as “brain fog” and extreme tiredness. Shortness of breath and respiratory issues can also impact people with prolonged exposure to mold. A further side effect of mold can be depression, which isn’t often associated with mold exposure. Every person may have different symptoms, and these symptoms may not be immediately connected with mold toxicity. If you notice negative health symptoms recently, it’s a good idea to contact professionals to determine if you’ve been exposed to mold in your home.

In addition to allergies and other negative health impacts, mold can wreak havoc on your home’s structure. Mold spores can actually do a significant amount of damage to your drywall. Areas that have been impacted by mold can start to rot and may need replacement to ensure your home is structurally sound and to get rid of the mold. This can often occur due to water damage or flooding. Moreover, airborne spores can transfer throughout your home and impact other areas such as your flooring (especially carpet) and furniture. Getting immediate mold removal in Shoreview MN and/or water damage restoration if you suspect mold is impacting your home is crucial to protecting your home’s structural integrity as well as your loved ones from the harmful impacts of mold.
