Well that was a cold winter we just had! I assume you were blasting the heat in your house to get rid of the bitter chill. The sad truth is most times heat escapes into the empty attic space of your home. Because of this, ventilation is very important. If your attic is properly ventilated the hot heat will escape and you will be pleasantly mold free. However, if your attic is poorly ventilated, that hot air has no place to go, therefore it condenses on the cold under side of your roof causing a major problem.
How do you know if your attic is ventilated? You can look for the soffit bays and check for visible daylight coming in along the lower soffits. There are many different styles of soffits and ridge venting, getting Peniel Environmental mold inspectors in your attic is the best way to see if you do have adequate ventilation in your attic.
Mold in your attic or anywhere in your home for that matter can be very deceiving. What you can see with the naked eye is millions of mold spores clumped together creating that very large spot. In ideal conditions, one mold spore can develop into 12 million in just twelve hours.
To successfully remove mold from your attic you need to find the root of the problem. If you simply remove the mold you see with your naked eye you are not removing the root, leaving it intact. Therefore, if a new leak arises or moisture continues to find its way into your attic the mold will be back in full swing!
