SERVPRO helps stop mold spores from spreading in Long Beach
If you spot signs of mold damage in your house, it is vital to immediately deal with it. Fungal spores can quickly become airborne, or hitch a ride on your clothes or pet’s fur, and spread throughout your home.
If you are looking for a Long Beach mold remediation company, choose one that understands the importance of containment in fighting mold. SERVPRO trains our technicians to use containment to lessen the spread of mold spores:
- Thick polyethylene sheeting and duct tape create a barrier.
- Air scrubbers and negative air machines pull fungus spores from the air.
- Taping over vents, ducts, and window and door frames means fewer places for mold to escape.
We also set up staging areas, if needed, to lessen the risk of our technicians carrying mold spores on their clothes. Staging areas give us a focused place to don and remove protective equipment and dispose of mold-damaged materials.
When we are finished with mold remediation, we deodorize the area to get rid of musty fungus smells.
