We will also focus on a natural and eco-responsible product that can help you effectively: anti-messengs available during biology.

Because mold appears in our homes

Understand the phenomenon of mold

The molds often appear in areas where humidity accumulates. This is the reason why places like the bathroom, the kitchen and the basement are the most vulnerable. In general, mold develops in which humidity is high, combined with insufficient ventilation. The lack of ventilation creates a climate favorable to their proliferation. And the worst part is that the molds are often rooted without noise, they develop slowly behind the furniture, in the corners or the tile joints.

The consequences of prolonged exposure to the mold

The impact of mold is not only visual. Their spores can cause health problems, including irritation of respiratory life, allergies and even infections. Children, elderly and asthmatic people are particularly sensitive to these volatile spores. In addition to these consequences on health, the molds are also very aggressive for building materials. They can attack patches, paintings and even wood, weakening the structure of the house.

How to identify the presence of molds

Visual and olfactory signs

The first indication of the presence of mold is often a dark stain on walls, ceilings or tile joints. These points are sometimes green, black or even whitish. But mold is not always seen. Sometimes they hide behind the wall coverings or in dark corners. Another sign is the smell. The molds often emit the smell of the picked or wet earth, which persists even after having ventured the parts.

Use of technology to identify risk areas

Some modern tools can facilitate mold detection. For example, a hygrometer allows you to measure the humidity of the house. The relative humidity greater than 60 % is an indicator that can promote mold development. We can also use thermal cameras that help identify the areas where condensation is present, often a pioneer of their appearance.

Immediate actions: how to react to mold

Clean existing molds

From the first signs of mold, it is essential to act. Begins by cleaning the affected areas using An antimackerry product Like the one we offer in Biologent.

The ideal is to avoid inhaling the spores released during cleaning.

Use of natural solutions

You can also prefer the use of white vinegar or sodium bicarbonate. White vinegar is a good disinfectant capable of neutralizing certain types of mold. However, its effectiveness is sometimes limited to a very encrusted mold. Sodium bicarbonate has a slightly abrasive effect and can be combined with vinegar to strengthen its action. However, specific products such as Biolooking's anti-mints are the most efficient and lasting solution for the treatment of affected areas.

Prevent the appearance of new molds

Check the humidity of the house

The best solution is always prevention. To prevent the mold from returning, it is essential to control the humidity. Good ventilation is essential, especially in wet rooms such as bathroom or kitchen. The installation of an air extractor can considerably reduce humidity and prevent the establishment of mold. Also remember to ventilate your home every day, even in winter.

Adopt natural insulation solutions

Poor isolation can also be a cause of condensation and therefore mold. The use of natural materials for isolation not only helps to maintain a good thermal regulation, but also to control humidity of course. Sing, sheep wool, wooden or cork fibers are all effective solutions that create a healthy environment while avoiding the proliferation of mold.

Lime cracks: a natural barrier against mold

Lime: a material with more properties

The use of the lime for the coverage of the wall has several advantages in the fight against mold. Lime is a steam permeable material, which means that it allows the walls to «breathe». By facilitating the regulation of humidity, it reduces the risk of mold formation. In addition, lime is a naturally antiseptic material, capable of destroying the microorganisms on the surfaces.

Associate the lime with the anti-meters for an optimal result
