American College of Allergen reports:
50% of all illness is aggravated or caused by polluted indoor air.
Scientific America reports:
Babies (and pets) crawling on the floor inhale the equivalent of 4 cigarettes a day, as a result of the out-gassing of carpets, mold, mildew, fungi, dust mites, etc.
Home contaminants create stress among some family members not fully understanding the severe reactions of their loved ones. Some people get use to the smells in their home, office or vehicle and do not recognize the escalating issues. For others, health issues can eventually become irreversible. Mold and bacteria are microscopic, poisonous mycotoxins that attack: organs, blood, sinuses, lungs, digestive system, brain, joints, skin, eyes, emotions and other system of your body. Asthma is the one of the top reasons children go to the emergency room. Mold slows down medical treatments; causes time off work; loss of energy; insomnia; depression and shortens your life. Then your immune system is weaker, you become even more vulnerable to chronic physical and emotional problems. Life threatening health issues can accelerate over time. If you have health issues starting, it maybe time for you to take action! See the list on our websites button titled "
200 Mold Illness A-Z".
A little known fact is mold and sick building syndrome (SBS) more often develops from numerous sources over several years. Many problems today originally sprouted years ago. Moisture intrusion can speed up the problems. Other sources we resolve are gases from formaldehyde in new carpeting and mobile homes or Benzene or Benzol. This is one of the 20 most used chemicals in the US and is an irritant and a cancer causing agent. It is found in rubber, detergents, dyes, pesticides, cigarette residue, shoes and more. Its effects include anemia; drowsiness; sleeplessness; headaches; low white blood cell count; reproductive organs; dizziness; changes in bone marrow; tremors; confusion; unconsciousness and death.
Most people do not realize that unwanted odors can be just as destructive to people and homes. Unpleasant odors are natures way of telling you sick building syndrome (SBS) is growing in your home. The body odor of live organisms is decreasing your property value. Pets, people, food and drink can leave behind living unwanted viral organisms and bacteria that can smell sour for years. Mold and bacteria feed off of one another. Sweat, saliva, blood and wastes can thrive throughout your home, in your cloths and vehicle. Note: We are available for crime scene purification.
A leaky faucet, condensation, spilled food/drinks, damp fabric, no air movement or no bathroom exhaust can activate SBS. Air conditioners are a primary point for mold growth to start and/or spread. Unwanted living organisms start out microscopic and as they grow, can be recognized as a spots on walls; discoloration in cabinets; water marks in ceilings; bacteria stains in cloths/fabric; dust around air ducts; or locker room odor in shoes/closets; then evolve or feed off one another and cultivate more toxic SBS. And you do not want to know about the eco-system living in your bed! Have you ever noticed that pillows and mattresses get heavier over the years? All these slowly drain the quality of life for you, your family and pets.
History has proven unwanted odors and stains of bacteria and mold can be difficult to eliminate. SBS can be carried in from unwanted pests that carry mold and bacteria on their legs. Decaying dead roaches (including behind the walls) contribute to major health issues for years. Smoking in the home or vehicle leaves behind over 3,600 cancer-causing toxins. SBS contaminants enter the body from cloths you wear throughout the day; inhalation; furniture and settling into the food you eat.
The odor of live organisms is a sign of decreasing property value. Mold and bacteria breaks down fabric, wood, plastic, leather, carpeting, grout and most of the items in our home. You may have seen the full effects of this reaching for stored items and they fall apart. Cracked caulking is often the start of mold and moisture seeping behind your walls; producing mold colonies behind walls and compounding your problems. The dust you see maybe mold settling in your home. The use of air fresheners and fragrances (many being allergen irritants and carcinogen) can be masking the growing problem. Your home and health issues will only get worse with time. Until recently, there was no true "Cure".

Homes with no power develop SBS. Sellers of vacant properties are spending more to cover up the problem then for us to cure it. Mold is microscopic and invisible. Some mistakenly use bleach on the visible excrement of larger colonies. Bleach is a whitener. It removes the colored potty, but can actually fuel the mold growth. Before turning on the power, call us to learn preventative steps to reduce the risk. We have helped dozens of property managers to extinguish issues.
