How does mold start growing, and continue growing?

For mold to thrive, a combination of moisture and a cellulose nutrient is required - like drywall, carpeting, or fabric.  Water leaks or minor floods that haven’t been properly cleaned are ideal for mold growth.  An excess of condensation or high levels of humidity can also contribute to growth.  But mold is not always visible – in fact, most indoor mold is hidden, perhaps behind wallpaper, under the floor, even behind built-in cabinets.  The professionals at Mould Hound, however, have the tools and the know-how to find and detect virtually any source of mold.
