Mold, those teeny tiny forms of fungi that are found naturally in the environment can sometimes rear their nasty (and sometimes dangerous!) head in your home. Maybe you have an inkling that there is mold growing in your home because you smell a strange odor, have health problems, or have “allergies” that have newly arisen: where should you look?
The first place we recommend is the crawl space underneath, especially if it has not yet been encapsulated. Crawl spaces that have not been encapsulated can release damp air up into your home that might already have mold in it that is growing underneath your floors. If your crawl space has been encapsulated already, and the job was done correctly, then chances are the mold is coming from somewhere else that there is moisture intrusion in your home. Well, these places below, along with some other clues, might help you find those fuzzy little devils.
