Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Moldy furniture may be salvageable, depending on the extent of the mold growth and length of the exposure. If a piece of furniture is covered in mold and has been for some time, you may want to throw it away, rather than try to clean it. If you're unsure whether a piece of furniture can be saved or not, your best option is to call in a professional. 

Poor maintenance can cause some health concerns, although these are more common in commercial misters than residential versions. For example, stagnant water can become a breeding ground for bacteria, some of which can be dangerous to human health, especially when inhaled. Regular flushing of the system before seasonal use should prevent issues like these.

Otherwise, avoid using mosquito misters with pesticides or plant misters with fertilizers near humans. These misters are not designed for cooling sprays around decks or patios, but for more utilitarian purposes.

Powdery mildew tends to grow mostly on leafy plants. The mold itself isn’t particularly harmful, except for those who are allergic to mold. However, you should treat it like you’d treat the discovery of any other mold, and get rid of it immediately. Powdery mildew can spread to your home, which can cause expensive damage. 

If no remediation work is done, mold can grow within 12-24 hours if wet, warm conditions prevail. To prevent mold growth, stop leaks as soon as you spot them and keep your basement as dry as possible. If you do notice mold in your basement, call a mold removal specialist near you to address the situation immediately.

No, it isn’t. This is one of those things that needs to be dealt with immediately because mold will spread at a rapid rate and can go from just one spot on the wall to a serious health risk in a matter of days. Prolonged exposure can be extremely dangerous, so any mold issues (or even suspected mold) need to be dealt with right away.
