Home Sterilization and Mold Remediation
Cases of mold, black mold, and mildew are often associated with water
problems. If you have had unwanted water enter your home via humidity, plumbing, leaks, or floods, you probably have mold and unpleasant
smells. This mold will spread and potentially cause health issues that your
family may deal with for years to come, often creating life-changing
action including moving out of your home permanently.
There is a myth that household chlorine bleach will effectively abate mold in the remediation process. Through the promotion by several agencies, bleach has generally been perceived as an “acceptable” way to clean mold from surfaces. However, OSHA was the first federal agency to stop recommending the use of liquid bleach, and the EPA followed by removing it from their guide “A Brief Guide to Mold, Moisture and Your Home” (EPA 402-K-02_003) as a once recommended method of mold clean-up. Bleach will remove the color from mold and make it appear gone, but it is a surface cleaner and will not kill the deeply embedded mycelia “roots” of the mold. As a result, it can always return when conditions are right.

Mold can grow on nearly any organic material as long as the environment
is conducive. This means that mold growth can happen in any home— from historic to newly built. Under the right conditions, it doesn’t take
long for mold to develop. Most home interiors are built with organic
material such as wood in the walls, paper on the sheet rock, etc. and
all are susceptible to mold growth before they even get into the home.
Many of the materials are stored outside where moisture is prevalent or
in warehouses with no humidity control. This means that a brand new home
can have mold developing before it is even inhabited. Of
course, unattended water leaks can also cause mold to grow. These
unfortunate situations usually happen when the leak is in an area which
cannot be detected; plumbing inside a wall cavity or behind a shower
head or in a crawl space for example. These situations can happen even
in a new home and are often not discovered until the mold has developed a
spore, and someone gets sick.
