Have you ever smelled an odor in your home?

Most people can’t distinguish mold and that’s ok.

That’s why SERVPRO is here to help.

If you’re smelling something in your home but you don’t see anything, it might be growing somewhere hidden within your walls.

There are over 3 million kinds of mold but there are 3 categories when it comes to what homeowners may find in their home.

Pathogenic Mold causes issues for people who have a compromised immune system or any other chronic conditions such as COPD or asthma.

Allergenic Mold causes allergic reactions such as itchy, watery eyes, sneezing and headaches.

And the most dangerous mold is the mold that causes health issues; Toxigenic Mold, which tends to be toxic to humans regardless of any underlying condition.

Mold can give off a musty smell and can sometimes have an earthy smell as well, which is more of the toxigenic mold.

But if you’re ever having any symptoms like, runny nose, itchy throat, congestion and/or dry skin, then maybe try calling SERVPRO of Northwest Albuquerque a call and we can get all that taken care of for you. When it comes to your health, SERVPRO is here to help!
