Fixing moisture-causing problems - Identify the problem areas where moisture can built up like condensation on the windows, flooded areas in the basement, water stains on the ceiling, etc.You can easily prevent mould from growing and spreading by fixing such problem areas.
Dry moisture as soon as possible - Mould cannot possibly develop without the presence of moisture .If there is any item at home that has been exposed to moisture, you need to dry it as soon as possible to minimise the risk of mould growth.
Roof Ventilation - Even everyday activities like cooking, taking a shower or doing laundry can invite mould in your home. By properly doing roof ventilation by using different kind of systems in which these activities take place is very important. You should even vent the appliances that produce moisture, like stoves, clothes dryers, Dehumidifiers, AC units and exhaust fans.
Monitor humidity levels - A moisture meter can help you monitor the humidity levels. Condensation on pipes, windows, and walls is indicative of high moisture. The surface should be dried and the source should be addressed.
Boost airflow in your home - As temperatures begin to drop, there is less moisture in the air. Without proper air flow in the home, you may notice extra moisture on your walls, floors, and windows. You can improve circulation by opening doors between rooms and moving furniture away from the walls.
As you can see, there are ways to reduce the risk of developing mould in your home. You just need to be a little more careful when dealing with home cleaning tasks and check your home for areas of excess moisture.
