  1. Mold and Water Damage in Hoarding www.wearemsi.com

  2. Identify and Address Water Sources www.wearemsi.com

  3. Declutter and Improve Ventilation • Piles of belongings block airflow and trap moisture, creating the perfect breeding ground for mold. Start by removing items that are wet, moldy, or unnecessary to improve air circulation and reduce humidity levels. www.wearemsi.com

  4. Use Protective Gear When Cleaning • Mold spores can be harmful to health, especially for individuals with respiratory issues. Wear gloves, masks, and goggles when cleaning moldy areas to minimize exposure and prevent respiratory problems. www.wearemsi.com

  5. Dry Out Affected Areas Immediately • Use fans, dehumidifiers, and open windows to dry out water-damaged areas quickly. Mold can begin growing within 24-48 hours, so swift action is crucial to prevent further contamination.. www.wearemsi.com

  6. Clean Mold with Safe Solutions • FOR SMALL MOLD INFESTATIONS, USE A MIXTURE OF WHITE VINEGAR, HYDROGEN PEROXIDE, OR A COMMERCIAL MOLD CLEANER TO SCRUB AFFECTED AREAS. AVOID USING BLEACH, AS IT DOES NOT PENETRATE POROUS MATERIALS AND MAY ONLY PROVIDE A TEMPORARY FIX. www.wearemsi.com

  7. Dispose of Irreparably Damaged Items www.wearemsi.com

  8. Seek Professional Help When Needed In severe hoarding situations, mold and water damage can be extensive. Consider hiring a professional mold remediation service to ensure thorough cleaning and restoration while maintaining safety. www.wearemsi.com

  9. Monitor Humidity Levels Use a hygrometer to track indoor humidity levels and keep them below 50%. Running dehumidifiers and using moisture absorbers can help prevent future mold growth. www.wearemsi.com
