Sensitivities

Mold’s presence in a home can cause a variety of adverse health reactions. The CDC confirmed that individuals with pre-existing conditions are even more likely to experience a heightened sensitivity to mold exposure, leading to a long list of potential symptoms. The ongoing theory is that these individuals can’t detoxify mold from their bodies the way an average person can.

Researchers point to a few pre-existing conditions that are prone to mold sensitivity, but again, more research is needed to identify others. So far, those with CIRS, PANS/PANDAS, Lyme disease, and Autoimmune Disorders are believed to be more likely to experience sensitivities. Those with compromised immune systems also fall into this category. 

Below are links to various conditions that feature research demonstrating how mold exposure can produce negative health effects in those who are affected. Take a look at the studies we’ve provided if you or someone you know is concerned about mold exposure and has one of these preexisting conditions. The first step towards solving a problem is to delve into the research to better understand it.

Above all, remember that HomeCleanse is on your side. Feeling unwell and not knowing the cause can be scary- we know! You are not alone though. So far, we’ve remediated homes for over 500 families experiencing mold sensitivities in their environment. Oftentimes, they can’t even live in their house anymore because of the severity of their side effects. Take a look at our Mold Talks page for interviews with real people discussing how mold affected their health and their lives. 

REMEDIATION

Because mold has the potential to impact a person’s health, the best approach is to remove the fungus and any other potential contaminants entirely. That means 100%, top-to-bottom remediation that not only deals with the source of the mold but also every single contaminant in the home. 

When you look for a mold remediation company, make sure they follow AAR’s three pillars of remediation so that your home is safe for you and your family. 

1. Remediate the sources properly
2. Identify and address the problem that led to those sources in the first place
3. Eradicate every contaminate created by those sources

From our personal experience in remediation, by completely eliminating the contamination in the home and improving the air quality, sensitive individuals can live and breathe better inside. 

HomeCleanse has experience working with individuals diagnosed with: Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome, Multiple Chemical Sensitivities, Autoimmune Disorder, Lyme Disease, Lyme Disease Co-infections, Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, and those immunocompromised. Please let us know if you have any of these diagnoses or sensitivities so that we can create a remediation strategy with the illness in mind.
