At My Pure Environment, we strive to do more than just enough. Our team of local experts is focused on changing lives by improving the health of our community by removing mold/pathogens from the places we live and work. There are many types of molds, and all can affect your health. It has been shown that healthy people exposed to mold can experience symptoms of coughing, wheezing, other asthmatic symptoms, and other adverse neurological effects.
Prolonged exposure can increase the risk of infections or other respiratory illnesses. When mold is growing in a home, spores are being released and flowing through the vents and air ducts to every room of the home. These can produce mycotoxins that can cause serious medical problems through breathing, touching, or ingesting them.

Approximately 25% of the population have a genetic vulnerability to the toxins produced by molds. This means that their bodies cannot properly remove the toxins and those toxins may accumulate in their bodies causing mold toxicity. Mold toxicity is different from a mold allergy and can cause a wide range of symptoms that are not often associated with mold exposure.
The obvious reasons are bathrooms tend to be humid rooms because of the steam from baths or showers. But also most bathroom fans don't move enough air to keep the moisture from building up. As you probably know moisture is what mold needs to thrive and colonize and bathrooms provide the perfect environment for it to do just that.
Mold is a type of fungus. The primary function of mold in nature is decomposition, so it feeds on fibrous materials to break them down. The colony gains nourishment from the materials, which helps it grow. As it grows, it spreads to other parts of your home by releasing tiny spores into the air. These spores float around until they take root in a suitable material and the process starts all over again.
