Mold can grow not only on your walls, basements, heating systems and pipes but even on ordinary things, such as clothes, toys and your pet’s food bowl. However, mold is a type of fungus that can be bad for your health, especially for people with allergies, asthma, other respiratory problems and a weakened immune system.
In fact, mold can also create a favorable environment for the production of various microbes and bacteria. So, if you want to protect and prevent mold, you have to control the moisture in your house, ventilate it every day and clean it properly.
So, if you notice a leak in your house, try to stop it as soon as you can, use a dehumidifier, and leave your windows open for a few minutes every day to ventilate the room.
