🚨 Mold Spotlight Wednesday!

🦠 Stachybotrys (Pronounced: “STACK-ee-bot-ris”)

Typically know as the “black mold” (it’s not the only one), but is one of the most well-known toxic molds found in water-damaged homes.

Is commonly found on:
• Drywall
• Wood
• Ceiling tiles
• Paper-backed materials

⚠️ Seriousness Level: HIGH ⚠️

⚠️Why this matters:
This mold thrives in areas with long-term moisture problems and poor air quality.

Possible health symptoms include:
• Chronic coughing
• Headaches
• Fatigue
• Respiratory irritation
• Worsened asthma symptoms

If you notice dark patches and a strong musty odor after water damage, it’s important to have the area professionally inspected.

The photo below is of a client that had water intrusion in the basement behind some furniture. After a very thorough inspection we checked behind the furniture and this ended testing positive for Stachybotrys. This was remediated and our client is already on the mend with their health!

Does your house smell musty after it rains?

That smell could mean hidden moisture or mold growth.

Spring storms can expose:
✔ Roof leaks
✔ Foundation seepage
✔ Poor ventilation
✔ Hidden water damage

A mold inspection helps identify the source before it becomes a bigger issue. These pictures are from clients who suspected they had mold from leaks and we were able to find it so they could get it addressed!

If you or others in your home or workplace often feel congested, tired, or experience headaches without knowing why, your indoor air quality (IAQ) may be to blame.
