Monsoon season is bliss and brings about a much needed break from the scorching sun and the sweltering heat. However, along with monsoon comes humidity, which gives birth to mold and mildew that can damage your walls, clothes, and even furniture. So, how can you prevent mold growth and keep the moisture at bay? Let's find out.
To combat mold growth, the very first thing you need to do is get rid of moisture from your home. Here are some tips to help you out:
● Buy a dehumidifier to remove humidity from the room
● Make sure your room gets sufficient sunlight throughout the day
● Clean water condensation as soon as you spot it
● Sprinkle baking soda on surfaces covered with moisture
● Wipe down your furniture using a dry towel or cloth
● Open the windows and doors to allow airflow and ventilation
Once you take measures for eliminating moisture, the next step is to get rid of the mold in your house and stop its growth. Here's how you can do that.
Some common places where you can find mold growth are under your kitchen sink, walls, furniture placed next to the walls, behind the toilet, on the bathroom walls, near the washing machine, and other areas where water or water condensation is present. Here are some tips to prevent mold growth and ensure a safe environment indoors.
● Identify the area where mold growth is usually present
● Immediately dry the wet areas of your home and ensure proper ventilation
● If there are any leaking pipes or seepage issues, get them fixed right away
● Move all your furniture away from the walls where the seepage occurs
● Avoid keeping any damp items lying around in your house, including clothes and furniture pieces
● Dry damp clothes or furniture pieces before you bring them into your home
● Opt for a mold removal service and frequent the use of products that help prevent mold growth.
As fun as the monsoon season is, it can instantly turn into a nuisance if you're not careful. Household mold is a very frequent issue for this weather, especially if you have an old house with seepage and pipeline issues. It is essential that you follow the tips above and identify the problematic places of your home to prevent mold growth. You can even rely on a good mold removal company to nip the problem in the bud and ensure a dry, mold-free house in the monsoon season!
