In the News! Mold photos go viral

Mold In the News
A rolled newspaper with the headline News

January 9, 2016 //  by John Skelly

If you are an avid social media user, there is no doubt you saw the alleged pictures of mold spreading throughout a barracks at Fort Gordon, GA. While we cannot confirm that these pictures are in fact true of the claims, we love when mold hits the headlines so that we can further educate the public on what a true health concern it is. Click here for the story.

The alleged photos show mold on a chair, on the sink, on a pool table, pillow case and the ceiling! Mold can grow ANYWHERE is the important lesson here. The soldier who claims the room is covered in mold stated that the room was bleached, but that the mold came back after a few days. This is a huge point we like to address; bleach does not always kill mold! Once the mold has become visible and spread to multiple places, especially in this case, bleach and at home treatments won’t do the job.

This story stands out to the public as we always worry about the health effects of anyone exposed to mold. When exposure is directly related to chronic health problems that can be prevented, it makes everyone take a second look.

The facts are this; a mold problem needs to be dealt with immediately at the first sign. At home mold treatments, DIY treatments, and bleach are not necessarily going to completely get rid of your problem. There are a lot of other things at play when talking about the growth of mold including humidity, temperature and type. It is important to realize that there are times where an expert is needed and to get the help you need with serious problems fast.

We at HNST Mold Inspections pride ourselves on the principles of honesty and integrity. This means we always provide independent, non-biased opinions and solutions to our clients. If you have a mold problem, contact the experts at HNST Mold Inspection today.
