Residential

Even the cleanest houses are home to various kinds of surface-damaging bacteria, viruses, fungi, mold, and mildew. Surfaces that include kitchen counters, TV remotes, and bathroom floors can contain high levels of microbial contamination.

When family members touch those surfaces, the transfer of those microbes can begin, leading to cross-contamination. Staphylococcus, salmonella. and E. coli are among the most common pathogens encountered in residential settings, and, regardless of where a contamination originates (e.g. mishandled raw meats, the bathroom, pets or wet basements), can all cause serious illness.

In the meantime, the presence of mold in the home can have negative implications for the structure, a home’s market value, and the well-being of its inhabitants. Exterior surfaces are particularly susceptible to mold,

with some forms being toxic. Exterior mold is primarily found on siding, patio furniture, and decks, while interior mold is often hidden from plain sight. Mold on shower curtains and bathtub stalls is usually not difficult to detect, which is not always the case with mold in the air conditioner unit or inside of walls.

For many individuals, mold can have adverse health effects. In 2004, the Institute of Medicine linked indoor exposure to mold with upper respiratory tract symptoms in otherwise healthy people. The potential for illness is exacerbated, it said, in infants, children and the elderly, as well as in individuals with allergies or compromised immune systems.
