Specialized Mold Remediation Solutions

Mold damage is nothing to be trifled with. The dangers of mold damage to health and property are well known but what many people are not as well aware of are the different methods of mold remediation.

Any mold remediation addresses the presence of moisture through a combination of ventilation, vacuuming, and heat. Without removing the water that leads to mold growth, remediation is a waste of time. It takes a special vacuum, with an HEPA filter, to take care of mold. This filter has very fine holes that trap even the smallest mold particles.

Non-porous surfaces that have mold growth are very easy to clean, requiring little more than wiping. Any material used to wipe down these surfaces must be rapidly dried or disposed of, before the mold can take root in them, as well.

One of the most effective measures to kill mold on and in many materials is dry ice blasting. Dry ice blasters carve a chunk of dry ice into very fine particles and use air to blast them through a tube. The intense cold kills mold immediately. The only possible downside of dry ice blasting is that any mold that escapes the reach of the blaster can repopulate the area. Other than that, dry ice is one of the most effective means of killing mold, especially in wood.

Of course, these techniques are used in conjunction with removal of mold infested materials. Only the most benign mold growth can be easily cleaned without removing materials.
