I have a mold problem in my house can you help me?
-
Due to budgetary constraints and an absence of State or County laws and/or regulations pertaining to the presence of mold, effective March 24, 2004, we will no longer be taking residential mold complaints. We are unable to advise the public on the possible health effects of mold and an attorney should be consulted for legal concerns in the event of a landlord/tenant issue. Some environmental consulting companies provide mold sampling services. Please refer to the yellow pages if you wish to talk to one of these companies.

How am I exposed to indoor molds?
Mold is found everywhere, indoors and outdoors. It is common to find mold spores in the air of homes and growing on damp surfaces. Much of the mold found indoors comes from outdoor sources. Therefore, everyone is exposed to some mold on a daily basis without evident harm. Mold spores primarily cause health problems when they enter the air and are inhaled in large numbers. People can also be exposed to mold through skin contact and eating.
How much mold can make me sick?
It depends. For some people, a relatively small number of mold spores can cause health problems. For other people, it may take many more. The basic rule is, if you can see or smell it, take steps to eliminate the excess moisture, and to cleanup and remove the mold.
Who is at greater risk when exposed to mold?
Exposure to mold is not healthy for anyone inside buildings. It is important to quickly identify and correct any moisture sources before health problems develop. The following individuals appear to be at higher risk for adverse health effects of molds:
|
People with these special concerns should consult a physician if they are having health problems.
What symptoms are common?
Allergic reactions may be the most common health problem of mold exposure. Typical symptoms reported (alone or in combination) include:

Are some molds more hazardous than others?
Allergic persons vary in their sensitivities to mold, both as to amount and type needed to cause reactions. In addition, certain types of molds can produce toxins, called mycotoxins, that the mold uses to inhibit or prevent the growth of other organisms. Mycotoxins are found in both living and dead mold spores.
Materials permeated with mold need to be removed, even after they are disinfected with cleaning solutions. Allergic and toxic effects can remain in dead spores. Exposure to mycotoxins may present a greater hazard than that of allergenic or irritative molds. Mycotoxins have been found in homes, agricultural settings, food, and office buildings.
What are the most common problems found during a mold inspection in Phoenix?
Most people assume that because of Phoenix's extremely dry climate, mold growth would be a rare phenomena. In many regards this is true. Mold growth is unlikely to occur in ambient conditions. However, once moisture is introduced into the building, such as through a water leak, mold will grow quite well. In fact, due to the warm temperatures, mold growth will actually occur more quickly in phoenix than in cooler climates. A recent report from the insurance industry listed Arizona in the top 10 list of mold related claims.
These unique climate conditions cause mold growth to occur in unusual areas. In Phoenix, most of the year the indoor temperatures are cooler than those outside the home. This causes moisture and condensation to move inward through a wall assembly. Problems can occur when this moisture hits an impermeable structure and condenses. If this is occurs on the exterior of the home, the moisture can quickly dry out. However, if this occurs inside the wall cavity, significant mold growth can occur.
