Mold in your home or workplace is more than an unsightly nuisance—it can pose serious health risks. Prolonged exposure to mold or damp environments has been linked to various respiratory and immune system issues. If you suspect mold growth is affecting your health or the safety of your property, trust Fresh Start Environmental to provide expert mold removal and sanitation services in Pueblo, Colorado Springs, and across Southern Colorado.
Mold affects everyone differently. While some individuals may not experience any symptoms, others can suffer from serious health effects, especially if they are:
Sensitive to mold: Symptoms include nasal stuffiness, throat irritation, coughing, wheezing, eye irritation, and skin irritation.
Allergic to mold: Mold allergies can trigger severe reactions, including difficulty breathing or chronic respiratory issues.
Immunocompromised: People with weakened immune systems or chronic lung illnesses, such as obstructive lung disease, are at risk of lung infections when exposed to mold.
In 2004, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) confirmed that exposure to indoor mold is linked to upper respiratory tract symptoms, asthma exacerbation, and hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Mold exposure in damp indoor environments has also been linked to shortness of breath, respiratory illnesses in children, and even potential asthma development in genetically susceptible individuals.
While further research is needed to confirm the connection between mold exposure and conditions such as memory loss, lethargy, and acute idiopathic pulmonary hemorrhage, one thing is clear—mold is a health hazard that requires immediate professional attention.
Mold removal is a complex process that goes beyond surface cleaning. Mold spores can quickly spread and thrive in hidden, damp areas like behind walls, under flooring, and inside ventilation systems. Attempting to handle mold yourself without proper knowledge and tools may disturb the spores, leading to further contamination.
