Health Risks
Not until recently has the public been informed of the new dangers of water seeping into their homes. In addition to irritation, allergic reactions, and the many sicknesses caused by bacteria, there is a new threat — black mold.
"This mold can cause serious breathing difficulties, memory and hearing loss, dizziness, flu-like symptoms, and bleeding in the lungs." [USA Weekend]
"It is a greenish black mold that can grow on materials with a high cellulose content, such as drywall sheet rock, dropped ceiling tiles, and wood that become chronically moist or water-damaged due to excessive humidity, water leaks, condensation, or flooding." [NY City Department of Health]
"Used as a biological weapon by the Russians, this nuerotoxin is responsible for the deaths of 16 infants in Ohio." [Click2Houston]
It is a fact that mold begins growing within 24 to 36 hours of a foundation leak.
Homeowners can find out more information about the risks of black mold by talking to their family physician or by researching it online.
