Managing mold in a classroom

Environmental Hygienist testing

Mold growth was suspected in this school room by staff.  Professional testing was necessary to identify what molds should be re-mediated.

Molds are found in every environment, and mold spores reproduce rapidly when moisture is present.  An Institute of Medicine study found excessive dampness indoors encourages the growth of molds and other organisms, potentially causing a public health problem. The EPA advised that the potential health concerns from molds are an important reason to prevent moisture problems leading to mold growth.  

Testing identified the types of molds that were to be removed from the environment.  SERVPRO of Berrien County worked with the remediation protocol provided by the testing company.  All affected structure and materials were either removed or cleaned.  

Customer was happy with results when the post test results passed and the room was put back into service.
