Why Mold Testing Is Important
Mold thrives in damp, poorly ventilated areas and can cause:
✔ Respiratory issues (asthma, allergies)
✔ Structural damage (rotting wood, weakened drywall)
✔ Musty odors & visible stains
The only way to confirm mold toxicity is through professional testing.

Unexplained health symptoms (coughing, headaches)
