Indoor Air Quality Testing Before You Bring Home A Baby
There is nothing more exciting than bringing home a new baby!
One of the most important things you can do to prepare for your little one is to create a healthy, safe environment for your child (and yourself) to come home to. Want a scary statistic? Indoor air is up to five times more contaminated than outdoor air! Babies are particularly susceptible to indoor air pollution because their immune and respiratory systems are underdeveloped. Constant exposure to contaminants can lead to health issues such as irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat, headaches, dizziness, fatigue, and asthma. As a parent, you’ll do anything to keep your baby safe. Fortunately, there are several ways you can protect your children from indoor pollutants by implementing a few simple steps towards healthier indoor air.
Manage The Indoor Relative Humidity.
Florida humidity is no fun. Not only does it make the air heavier, but it also leads to the growth of unwanted fungi, yeast, and bacteria.
The Effect Of Mold Exposure On A Newborn
Why is MOLD so dangerous to babies?
Well, when a baby breathes in mycotoxins (a toxic substance produced by a fungus), the blood vessels in the baby’s lungs are weakened, pulmonary hemorrhaging is possible, and even a possibility of bleeding inside the baby’s lungs.
Are Pets Affected By Mold?
WHAT ARE THE DANGERS OF MOLD FOR PETS?
Mold exposure can be just as dangerous to our pets as it can be to us, sometimes even more so. While there are only a few genuinely toxic mold species, even the run-of-the-mill types detected during mold testing can seriously ill our furry companions.
While we are likely familiar with the effects and potential health implications of mold exposure to humans, we don't often talk about how it affects the pets in our lives. Indoor-only pets spend their whole lives in the same environment, compounding and magnifying issues caused by mold growth.
Your pet can be exposed to mold in several ways. Like humans, pets can breathe in mold spores, which will affect the respiratory system. Mold can also affect pets through their coat or skin, which may trap spores and make it difficult for your pet to get rid of them. Animals may also accidentally ingest mold spores, which can cause difficulties for their gastrointestinal tract.
MOLD EXPOSURE SYMPTOMS IN PETS
Some of the common signs and symptoms of mold exposure in pets include:
- Lethargy
- Vomiting
- Wheezing or rapid breathing
- Sneezing
- Nasal discharge
- Excessive licking or scratching
- Loss of appetite
- Skin sores

Hidden Mold at Home Making You Sick?
Do I Need a Mold Inspection?
When should a mold inspection be considered?
- When visible mold is not present, but the smell of mold is. Here a mold inspection and mold test can reveal whether there is indeed elevated mold and where it is located.
- There have been plumbing leaks or water issues, and there is a suspicion that elevated mold may exist in the air and behind walls.
- Post Mold Removal Clearance Testing to ensure that the previous mold issues have been resolved and mold counts have returned to levels found in normal environments of the same type.
- Health Concerns: In some cases, a doctor or the patient has a health issue that they cannot pinpoint the cause but seems to be related to mold symptoms (coughing, sneezing, headaches, etc). Here, a mold inspection and test may help to confirm whether the doctor’s or patient’s suspicions that a mold problem exists.
- For real estate transactions for the protection of Buyers and Sellers.
- Landlord/Tenant disputes as to whether there is a mold problem.
- Someone thinks they see or smell mold but are not sure.
- Someone is interested in a general Indoor Air Quality test of their environment.
