Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

While water in your basement is unlikely to make you sick unless it’s coming from a sewage backup, mold is likely to start to grow in wet areas within 24 hours, and mold can make you sick. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), inhaling mold spores can cause allergy symptoms, including runny nose, itchy eyes, difficulty breathing, wheezing, and itchy skin. Individuals with pre-existing respiratory issues like asthma and immunocompromised individuals are at an elevated risk of symptoms when inhaling mold spores.

Yes, mold under silicone caulk can potentially cause health issues, which may be more noticeable in people with asthma, allergies, or other respiratory conditions. Mold releases spores into the air, and inhaling these spores can cause symptoms such as coughing, sneezing, eye irritation, and skin rashes. It's important to address mold issues promptly to protect your health.

Mold loves a moist environment, so the best way to keep it from returning is to keep your machine as dry as possible. Take laundry out of the machine as soon as you can after a cycle finishes. If your laundry room is humid, consider using a dehumidifier or at least running a fan to increase airflow.

It's also a good idea to leave the washing machine door open when it's not in use, to improve airflow and keep the interior dry.

It is not advisable to stay in a house with black mold. Exposure to black mold, or any mold, can lead to health problems, especially for vulnerable individuals such as children, the elderly, or those with weakened immune systems. Black mold produces mycotoxins, which can cause respiratory issues, skin irritation, fatigue, and headaches. If black mold is detected, it is crucial to evacuate the premises, seek professional help for remediation, and only return once the area is thoroughly cleaned and confirmed mold-free by experts.

The negatives of a humidifier are the potential for mold growth due to high humidity levels, the up-front cost, and the energy requirements to run it. Depending on the state of humidity in your home, you may not actually see lower utility bills due to the humidifier running on a near-constant basis.
