How to protect your house from mold
Mold is a fungus that grows quickly in a damp place. In nature, fungus has many beneficial roles, but in our homes mold not only cause inconvenience, but may even make people sick. Mold causes breathing problems, sinus problems, eye, nose and throat irritation, and headaches. Mold is more dangerous for babies and older children, for pregnant women, the elderly and those who suffer from colds.
Let’s see a few ways how to prevent it.
- Make sure that your bathroom is well ventilated. If you have a built in ventilation, turn it on after showering. Or leave the window opened for some time to ventilate it, keep the door open. If the bathroom is extremely humid and window ventilation doesn’t help, buy a small humidity absorber, put it in the room and use it regularly. Easy but very effective way!
- Wash your shower curtain often and let it dry after each showering.
- Do not keep extra containers in the shower.
- Use squeegee to take the excessive moisture from shower walls.
- Get rid of spoiled food and any objects affected by mold immediately.
- If you see water drops appear around and under the windows that is a sign of poor sealing of window joints and it will quickly turn into source of mold. Wipe off the moisture regularly, take the plants away from windowsill, do not hang thick curtains around such windows.
Tip: In the early stages of mold growth, simple cleaning products like white vinegar, essential oils, oxygen peroxide or lemon juice will help you to fight it! Make sure to wear gloves and breathing respirator when cleaning mold!
Remember!
If the air humidity exceeds 60%, then the apartment must be dried with the help of electrical appliances, if it is below 35%, resort to the help of various types of humidifiers.
And of course, the important prevention of such a mold trouble is REGULAR CLEANING.
