People that live in Florida are well aware of the mold and mildew problems that can occur inside their home. Florida has high levels of humidity which means there’s often times excessive moisture in the air which can result in mold and mildew inside and outside the home. In fact, many people in Florida have their homes professionally checked every year for interior air quality to reduce their risk of having respiratory problems. What many people don’t realize is that the quality of the air outside the home has a big impact on the quality of the air and the likelihood of getting mold or mildew inside the home.
Mold and Mildew – A Common Problem in South Florida Florida homes are constantly subjected to rain, humidity and moisture from the ground. Our low elevation, high humidity and frequent rain showers in the summer are a cause for having mold and mildew around the house. Allowing this mold and mildew to stew and grow on and around your house can result in costly repairs if left alone.
