Bio Clean of Utah, a mold removal Provo Utah based company, wants people to know that they have been stressing the importance of getting rid of molds in many of their blog posts. This is because molds are dangerous to humans. Molds tend to produce allergens that can cause allergic reactions in people, causing symptoms such as runny nose, sneezing, skin rashes, and red eyes. They can also worsen asthma attacks in people with asthma. Also, some molds produce mycotoxins, which are toxic substances that can cause health problems in people.
Mycotoxins have been observed to interfere with certain cell processes and structures, thus causing serious health problems. These include pulmonary hemorrhage, nose bleeds, dermatitis, headaches, chronic fatigue, immune system suppression, sore throat, hair loss, burning eyes, blurred vision, diarrhea, and several flu-like symptoms. Meanwhile, black mold is the most notorious because it has been found to be closely related to the death of babies from bronchitis, respiratory bleeding, and asthma. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has revealed that black mold has caused more than 100 cases of lung diseases.
Daryl Olsen, president of Bio Clean of Utah, says, “Molds are part of the natural environment. Outdoors, molds play a part in nature by breaking down dead organic matter such as fallen leaves and dead trees, but indoors, mold growth should be avoided. Molds reproduce by means of tiny spores; the spores are invisible to the naked eye and float through outdoor and indoor air. Mold may begin growing indoors when mold spores land on surfaces that are wet.”
Daryl Olsen continues, “Mold requires several conditions to grow. It needs food, moisture, and the right temperature. Once these are met, spores may germinate after 12 hours and can start to grow within 24 to 48 hours. How quickly molds colonize depends on what kind of mold it is. This is why it is essential to act immediately in the event of water damage.”
Because of the high speed in which molds can multiply, drastically increasing the danger of people in home getting sick because of molds, getting rid of the molds is an urgent matter. Thus, Bio Clean of Utah offers 24/7 emergency service so that homeowners and property owners can get rid of molds from their homes or properties as early as possible.
Bio Clean of Utah, however, would like to warn homeowners and other property owners that mold cleanup should not be a DIY project. If the mold cleanup is not done by experts, it could cause the spores to be released into the air, thus causing health problems in the people living in the house or building.
Thus, the very first step in their mold cleanup process is containment. This is to isolate the area in order to prevent the spores from spreading beyond that particular area. To do this, they make use of temporary plastic walls and negative air pressure machines. They will then perform mold removal and proper disposal. The team members from Bio Clean of Utah have the proper equipment to protect themselves and know how to perform the cleanup without causing the spores to get into the air being breathed by humans.
After the mold removal, they will proceed to neutralize and clean the area. This is done by applying EPA-approved fungicides on the contaminated areas. They may also recommend the application of an anti-microbial coating to prevent the recolonization of mold on the remediated area.
Aside from mold removal services, Bio Clean of Utah also offers other kinds of services. These include blood and crime scene cleanup; air duct cleaning; fire and smoke damage cleanup; mold inspection; mold testing; and water damage cleanup. The water damage cleanup service is further subdivided into: flooded basement cleanup; ice damming; pipe leak cleanup; and wet carpet cleanup.
