"Corrie, the owner of Platinum Pest Control was great! We needed an escrow inspection done for our VA refinance and he took pride in taking care of us since he’s a veteran as well. The inspection was the last thing we needed for it to be finalized and he was prompt with getting us the report with a clearance right on the spot! Luckily we didn’t have any issues that needed to be fixed! His rates are low and he’s professional in what he does. Hire this guy!!"

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Mold and mildew are the things in basements that actually cause the musty odors, but moisture is the underlying issue that causes mold and mildew growth. Addressing moisture and water problems and then removing materials that are moldy are some of the best ways to get rid of the musty odors. Preventive measures after that—like installing air fresheners and a dehumidifier—can help keep musty odors from returning.

Knowing what to expect during a mold inspection can help make the process easier. Prepare by closing doors and windows for 48 hours, turning off HVAC systems for at least two hours, and avoiding disinfectant chemicals for at least 48 hours. 

The mold inspection process takes between 24 and 48 hours. Your professional will check walls, fireplaces, air ducts, vents, and windows for visible spores. They will also take an outdoor base air sample. Your pro will send these samples to a lab for testing and advise you on the findings.

Mold loves moisture, so prolonged high humidity levels or standing water can trigger mold growth. Mold also needs a food source to grow on, such as wood, fabric or another material. However, it's moisture that's most important for mold growth, which is why you want to keep humidity levels low.

The microscopic asbestos fibers do not cause eye irritation, throat irritation, or lung irritation. If you are inhaling fibers, you will not know it. This lack of immediate symptoms is one of the reasons why asbestos is so dangerous. You cannot know for certain if you are inhaling fibers, which is why you must wear safety gear if you could have any chance of an exposure while working.

Black discoloration on your attic insulation may be caused by buildup from soot, dust, or dirt, which does not come with dampness or a musty odor. However, another cause of black discoloration on attic insulation is black mold, which has a musty smell and other signs of damage. If you’re unsure what black stuff you’re looking at, consult a pro to be safe.
