Molds
Mold is everywhere. It is important to our ecology. Without mold, there would be no plant or animal decay, and no replenishing the earth with nutrients.

Sometimes people become allergic to certain molds. Usually the symptoms of mold allergy are runny nose, sneezing, watery eyes, and wheezing. Molds can cause a rash when they come into contact with the skin.

Indoor mold should be eliminated by using commercial mold cleaners or a solution of bleach and water. Mildew resistant paints help eliminate the problem. Mold often grows in air ducts, and regular cleaning of ducts helps rid of mold and debris that builds up in the ductwork. In more severe cases, a professional who does mold restoration may need to be called.

Allergy injections for mold often provide relief to individuals who suffer from mold allergy.
