Water (moisture) is the key. Without it, mold growth cannot start, much less multiply and spread. The easiest
way to prevent the mold from gaining a foothold is to control dampness. Keep your home or business clean and dry. If water
stands for even 24 hours, common molds can take hold.Keeping
humidity levels below 60% and venting moisture from showering and cooking to the outside are several ways to prevent the conditions
that can lead to mold growth. Other ways include: § Clean and dry up
spills within 24 hours § Dry out wet building
materials and carpets within 24 hours § Use
an air conditioner or a dehumidifier to reduce the indoor humidity levelsbelow 60%. If you have a central air conditioning system and need adehumidifier to reduce relative humidity below 60%, you should
have the airconditioning system examined
for problems § Do
not carpet bathrooms or basements We recommend Sebring homeowners keep their humidity levels below 55%
if possible. Note: While most experts suggest a relative humidity of less than
60%, below 50% is best for controlling both mold growth and dust mites. Dust
mites are microscopic animals related to spiders, ticks and other mites. Dust mites eat mold and dead human or animal skin
scales (flakes) and leave allergenic proteins. Dust mites reduce allergen production at these lowerhumidity levels.
