Testing for Mold and Some Common Misconceptions About It

Dave Adams, owner of Alpine Group, has been in the mold remediation business for more than two decades. Speaking with Angela Answers on Fox59, Adams said homeowners should not feel guilty when they have a mold issue. It happens everywhere. He adds that something does not have to be wet to breed mold and that high humidity is a big factor about 60 percent of the time. Only two or three types of black mold are toxic, and you need an expert to identify them. Areas of less than 10 square feet can be remediated by homeowners themselves and do not need to be professionally remediated.
