What Your Employees Should Know About Mold Control

September 14, 2022 | By DriRite

Working in a safe environment is important for so many reasons. Here at Dririte USA Inc., we tell you specifically about mold control in a workspace. We have witnessed many instances where people see or experience symptoms due to mold, and we want to make sure that more and more people become aware of causes and mold prevention in general. We have also witnessed a lot of unfortunate legal action due to employers not taking mold seriously and not taking the proper precautions in their work environments to make sure that mold does not grow. Of course, we understand that many employers and employees don’t know a lot about mold testing and mold in general, which is why we provide the information that we do. We also understand that a lot of the time it’s nobody’s fault that mold is growing. Mold is caused by moisture and oxygen. It is usually found in inconspicuous places in a building which is why people grow so ill from it and why it spreads more than it ever should. Luckily, our help will help you gain insight into mold problems because we are the best in Orlando!

 

How To Accomplish Mold Control 

You were probably wondering how to control mold and how to prevent it from spreading and occurring overall. There are several things that we recommend, so your work environment does not grow mold easily. First, make sure you keep your carpets clean and not have them around too much moisture. Second, paint your offices with mildew resistant paint, so workers are less likely to be exposed to mold. Third, when it’s hot out, have the air conditioning running or open windows often. Fourth, make sure that your office building is ventilated very well. Fifth, we recommend installing hurricane-proof doors and windows because they help with water and moisture prevention. Sixth, it’s important to inspect any place in your building that might be collecting water such as the nooks and crannies. Seventh, have someone check the plumbing during the year. Last, simply have someone come in, such as a maintenance crew to inspect the building and perform mold testing to make sure.

 

Signs Of Mold

We want you to be aware of the signs of mold so you can pinpoint whether or not mold might be in your building. Here are some signs that you might have mold:
