Health Risks of Black Mold
Black mold gives off airborne toxins, called mycotoxins. These mycotoxins can cause severe health problems, including respiratory issues, headaches, memory problems, and chronic fatigue. Seek medical attention immediately if you suspect black mold exposure. Complete mold removal is the most effective solution.
While small contaminations on hard surfaces can be safely cleaned, porous materials like drywall and carpets must be removed entirely. Because black mold removal can easily spread harmful spores and toxins, calling our professional remediation service is strongly recommended. Schedule an inspection immediately if you suspect significant infestations in your property.
How is Black Mold Different from Regular Mold?
Mold growth can take on different forms and appearances. Black mold has characteristics that distinguish it from other common mold forms.
Black Mold
You can tell whether you have black mold (Stachybotrys chartarum) or regular mold in your home by evaluating its color, smell, and appearance. Black mold differs from regular mold in several ways:
- Black mold has a slimy, greenish-brown appearance.
- It grows in very damp areas.
- It produces potent mycotoxins.
- Its strong, musty odor resembles rotting wood.
Regular Mold
Regular mold, often gray or brown, has a dry and powdery texture and a less intense musty smell. While all mold poses health risks, black mold is considered more dangerous due to its mycotoxins. While both thrive in dampness, black mold prefers consistently wet environments like flood- or leak-damaged areas.
- It has a grey-brown color and powdery texture.
- Doesn't produce mycotoxins.
- Produces a less intense musty odor.
Our Water Damage Restoration to Prevent Black Mold
Black mold thrives in damp, cellulose-rich environments. This is why water damage creates the ideal breeding ground for black mold to take hold — whether it's a burst pipe, a roof leak, or persistent condensation. The longer the moisture persists, the greater the risk of black mold growth and the more extensive the potential damage.
Luckily for our customers, DC Restoration Enterprise offers professional water damage restoration services. Our certified technicians use specialized equipment to extract water, dry affected areas, and prevent further moisture intrusion. This also helps us to treat the underlying causes of mold growth due to water damage.
