Useful tips to reduce mold growth in your home

“Tips for reducing mold growth:

• Keep roofs, gutters and downspouts in good condition and make sure rain water doesn’t pool up against the building structure.

• Use bathroom fans or open a window when bathing and for 30-45 minutes afterward. Use kitchen fan when cooking.

• Open windows briefly every day to let built-up moisture out of the home. Do this even when it’s cold out and even if it seems like there’s more moisture outside.”
