1. One or more occupants are suffering from unexplained health problems such as sinus problems, bloody nose, headaches, congestion, skin rashes, coughing, breathing difficulties, difficulty in thinking clearly,or fatigue. Some occupants may be sensitive to mold while others may not.
2. One or more occupants smell mold inside the home, office or building. People differ in their ability to smell mold.
3. There might be visible growth inside the home or building. Mold will even grow on a buildings contents.
4. Home or building organic or cellulose construction materials (wood, drywall etc.) have been wet for more that 24 hours. This could be from a flood, roof leak, pipe break, or anything along those lines.
5. During some or all of the year, the relative humidity inside the home or building exceeds 60%. A humid home is the prefect condition for mold growth.
6. The home or building is located close to heavy woods. Mold grows on decaying leaves and the close a home is to them, the easier it is for the spores to find their way into the home.
