"It was terrific. They were wonderful. They were punctual. They were true to their words. They cleaned up everything. They were pleasant. I don't have any complaints at all. I will recommend them. The result of the pest after they finished was the mold was gone. They did a very successful clean up. They patched up one of my ceiling, even though it was not their job."

Mold Testing and Remediation FAQs, answered by experts

Mold grows quickly. It typically begins to grow on drywall about 24 hours after exposure to moisture or humidity. Drywall is a porous material, which makes it particularly hospitable to mold growth. 

While mold growth begins after just a day or so, it can take a few weeks before the evidence becomes visible. Mold spores will typically appear on the drywall surface within three weeks of growth starting.

Drywall can be toxic to the environment and to humans in some cases. As drywall breaks down in a landfill and comes in contact with other organic chemicals, it can create hydrogen sulfide gas or leach into the groundwater. Additionally, the CDC recommends methods for controlling the inhalation of drywall dust when handled. While the common ingredients of drywall—gypsum, silica, and mica—are naturally occurring, they can cause irritation in some humans.

Eliminating mold from wood permanently poses a challenge as the mold spores have the ability to deeply penetrate the porous wood surface. While surface mold can be effectively eradicated with proper cleaning and preventative measures, it's difficult to guarantee its non-recurrence under favorable conditions. To prevent mold from reappearing, it is important to identify and resolve the root cause of the moisture that triggered mold growth initially.

Ensuring appropriate ventilation and a dry environment, or consider applying protective finishes such as sealant, varnish, or paint to prevent future moisture penetration and mold growth. Consistently inspect and maintain the area to keep the wood free from mold in the long term.

Pressure-treated wood offers some protection from the elements but doesn’t protect against mold. However, if you spot mold growing on pressure-treated wood, it doesn’t indicate rot or an interior fungal infection—the treatment process ensures that the mold stays on the exterior. Keep the wood dry, but if you spot some mold, remove it immediately and clean the area.

Pellet stoves burn compressed wood byproducts, making them very efficient and clean-burning. However, even efficient combustion still produces fine dust particles, which could have an effect on the health of vulnerable people in your household, such as infants and people with asthma. A wood stove pro can help determine whether the levels in your home are unsafe.
