The health risks of mold . . .

How do molds affect people?
Molds are not always a problem indoors; however, when mold spores land on areas that are wet or damp, they begin to grow and that has the potential to cause health problems. 

Because molds produce allergens (substances that can cause allergic reactions) and irritants, individuals that are sensitive to these substances can have allergic reactions by inhaling or touching mold. Some of these allergic reactions can include hay-fever type symptoms such as 
  • nasal and sinus congestion
  • eye irritation
  • wheezing and difficulty breathing
  • cough
  • throat irritation
  • skin irritation and rash
  • headache


Reactions to mold are quite common and can happen immediately or have symptoms appear later.    .  Also, mold exposure can be an irritant to eyes, skin, nose, throat and lungs, even in people who are not allergic to mold.


Some people may be more susceptible to health issues related to mold including those with current conditions including:
  • allergies
  • asthma
  • emphysema
  • HIV / AIDS
  • organ transplant
  • chemotherapy patients
