The silent killer......
What is black, grows on damp walls, tiles and even leather furniture?? BLACK MOLD!!
Believe it or not mold can be a cause of respiratory problems, and health problems meaning if ingested or inhaled, can cause a range of unpleasant and even dangerous symptoms in humans.
The most common black mold symptoms and health effects are associated with a respiratory response. Chronic coughing and sneezing, irritation to the eyes, mucus membranes of the nose and throat, rashes, chronic fatigue and persistent headaches can all be symptomatic of black mold exposure or black mold poisoning. severe cases of prolonged exposure, black mold health effects can be more dangerous. Often compounded by allergic reaction to the black mold spores, these symptoms can include nausea, vomiting, and bleeding in the lungs and nose. Not a pretty picture is it?!?!
So how do you know if your home, schools or place of work have a issue with black mold? Call a professional to have the environment tested. It’s costly but worth it to avoid long term health problems.
If you suspect a issue with black mold do not wait.... it is not worth the risk of your own health and those you love .
