You wipe your eyes again and again, but the watery eyes and blurred vision just won’t go away. Between that and the annoying postnasal drip and coughing, you don’t know if it’s a cold or Covid. Then, the itching starts. Red splotches of skin with a never-ending burn, and swollen gums. Was it someone you came in contact with? No. You haven’t left the house all week. Maybe it was something you ate? But there’s nothing but water, fruits, and vegetables in the refrigerator. Thump, thump, thump. Your head is pounding. Why can’t you—there’s the problem. That black and green furry stuff growing in your bedroom. Mold! It was on the wall near your window and started appearing after a few days of rain. It probably doesn’t help that you haven’t deep cleaned You must have touched it by accident. That must be the culprit. You investigate and realize that it’s come through the crack in your window, and it’s all over your siding!
Mold Will Take Over Your Home
That fuzzy, black culprit of all of your problems is a very real issue in homes.
Can you guess what the most common cause of mold is? No? Well, it’s moisture building up in wet and humid environments. One of the most common places this can occur is the siding of your home. If you didn’t know, siding is a covering for the exterior walls of a house. It’s usually made of boards or sheets, and its sole purpose is to protect your house from outside elements and make your house look pretty. Siding can be made from all kinds of materials including vinyl, fiber cement, brick, wood, metal, stone, stucco, and concrete. But, what’s important to note, is that sometime these materials have gaps or cracks in them that allow moisture to get in; and, because the environment in between is dark and damp, it’s a perfect breeding ground for mold.
