Five steps for eradicating mold with an attic clean up
<p>If you want to get rid of <a href="http://www.doh.wa.gov/ehp/ts/IAQ/GOT_Mold.html">mold</a> from your attic then you will need to prepare for an attic clean up. Mold remediation is important because ignoring mold can lead to all sorts of health and financial problems. You want to tackle the problem swiftly and effectively. In the rest of this article we will examine how you will actually go about eradicate mold from your attic in five simple steps.</p>
<ul>
<li>Step 1 – assessment. You will need to do a full assessment before commencing any attic clean up. This means checking all over your attic to make sure that you have seen the full extent of your mold problem. You don’t want to complete your attic clean up only to find that you have missed half of it. If you have a Lot of <a href="http://www.allergynursing.com/moldy/health_hazards.html">mold</a> then you may want to consider bringing in some expert help. If you are pregnant then don’t try and deal with this yourself because mold has been associated with miscarriage.</li>
<li>Step 2 – isolation. You want to remove everything from your attic that has not been affected by the mold. When you are doing the attic clean up you may put mold spores into the air and you don’t want these spreading to other objects you have in your attic. Moving things out will also give you a chance to fully investigate the extent of your problem. You will then want to seal this area off until after the clean up to prevent the spread of spores.</li>
<li>Step 3 – Attic clean up. In the past the common wisdom was to just use Water mixed with bleach which you would use to soak the mold area for fifteen minutes. There are now quite a few people who claim that bleach is not so effective and that you should use chemicals especially designed for killing mold. No matter which method you try just make sure you follow directions.</li>
<li>Step 4- Prevent a return of mold to that area. For this you can apply a borate-based solution to the area and leave it; don’t rinse this off.</li>
<li>Step 5 – Remove the conditions that allowed mold to grow. You will need to do a full assessment of your attic to find out why <a href="http://www.prweb.com/releases/2009/11/prweb3232854.htm">mold.</a> grew in the first place and remedy this situation. In most instances it will be due to poor ventilation, but you should also check for any possible water leakage from pipes or coming from outdoors.</li></ul></p>
