As if the many problems caused by flooding in Logan and the Scenic Rim weren’t enough, residents of both regions are now facing mould growing on ceilings, in carpet, in crevices and in bathrooms.
The damp conditions provide the perfect breeding ground and present a serious health hazard for people with asthma and allergies.
The Acting CEO of Asthma Australia, Kathy Packenas says homeowners and renters should check for mould and wear protective equipment when cleaning up.
Mould growth occurs when there is a water source or moisture present in an environment with limited or no sunlight.
Building materials such as gyprock, wood, carpet and other household materials that are exposed to moisture provide an ideal place for mould to grow.
So, If you have the fungus in your home there are a number of ways you can get rid of it.
The General Manager of Dunrite Meth and Mould , Steve Annells explains the easiest ways to kill mould.
However, if the mould problem in your home is extensive Mr Annells says his business is very successful at solving the problem and even though they’re busy they can still take on other clients.
