How can you tell if mold has become a threat to your health? It’s not always as simple as finding it in a basement, bathroom or other areas of a building exposed to consistently high levels of moisture. Like all mold, black mold – also known as stachybotrys chartarum or S. atra – needs moisture to thrive, and it does not always colonize areas you can see. The Centers for Disease Control recommend professional black mold remediation as a prudent course of action to avoid the inherent health risks associated with mold allergy. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, mold that spreads in unseen places like attics, crawlspaces, behind walls or behind wallpaper can cause the following conditions:

• Mucous membrane irritation
• Skin rash
• Nausea
• Immune system suppression
• Acute or chronic liver damage
• Acute or chronic central nervous system damage
• Endocrine (glandular) effects
• Some forms of cancer
