 Moisture
  A little time  Mold spores are transported through the air. Then, they settle in wet places and start to grow. To prevent the spread of mold in your home in Bradenton, FL you must control the airflow and moisture. The first thing you should do is turn off your HVAC system. This slows the spread of mold spores through the air and hopefully will protect your air ducts from an infestation of black mold. The second thing you must do is turn off the water. This helps to control moisture by cutting off any leaks throughout your home at the source.  Calling In the Experts   Your first call should be to a SERVPRO of West Bradenton / Anna Maria. It is also a good idea to have your air ducts inspected and, if a problem is found, cleaned before it can spread any further.
