Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

If you're wondering about black stains on brick at your home, the answer is that you're not looking at efflorescence. While efflorescence can be darker when certain types of salt are involved, black staining is caused by carbon staining, pollution from vehicles, and chimney soot. Black stains can also be caused by organic materials like lichen, algae, or mold.

While the resistance of lime to mold is a hotly contested topic of debate, it is true that because it allows porous materials to breathe, it avoids trapping moisture close to the structure of a building. This breathability makes it less susceptible to mold than paint because it gathers less moisture.

Most of the health problems associated with exposure to fiberglass insulation are short-term in nature. You may suffer from minor and temporary skin or eye irritation if you come into contact with it, and you may experience some sneezing, coughing, or breathing issues if you inhale fiberglass. Those with asthma and allergies may suffer more and longer. Though fiberglass was once a suspected carcinogen, there’s now no good evidence that exposure to fiberglass can cause lung cancer.

Standard wood stains often contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which the EPA states can irritate those exposed to their odor. Inhaling the fumes can pose health risks to humans. Prolonged exposure to VOCs from wood stains can lead to wood stain poisoning, manifesting in symptoms such as a burning sensation, blurred vision, and even collapse. Taking precautions when using these products is crucial to minimize the risk of adverse health effects.

There are a few signs that might indicate that mold is living behind your drywall. You might notice water stains on your walls or the ceiling, or see the wallpaper begin to peel. Wearing a mask, you could prod at any suspicious areas with a screwdriver; if the wall feels weak or soft, it’s likely there is water damage and possibly mold.
