Unfortunately, many homeowners do not know what the signs are that mold is present. If you do suspect you have mold, or know you have mold, you will want to contact your homeowner&#8217;s insurance company to find out if mold is covered and contact a professional to remove the mold. Here are a few signs mold may be present in your home in Evergreen, Park, IL.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Constant Allergy Symptoms<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One of the signs that mold may be present in your home is you or a family member always suffering from allergy symptoms. It is rare that the same allergen is blowing around outdoors year round. If your symptoms persist year round, it is more likely to be something in your home, like mold, causing the problem.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Musty or Mildew Odor<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is a difference between mold and mildew. However, these two grow in similar environments. They both love dark, damp areas and thrive in them. If you smell a musty or mildew-like odor, there is a strong possibility mildew and potentially mold, is growing in your home.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You See Small Amounts of Mold<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You may see a small amount of mold on the baseboards of your home or in the corner of a wall. If there are small amounts visible, there are likely huge amounts not visible. Call in a professional if you notice any mold growing in your home to find out how extensive the issue may be.<\/p>\n<p>If you are looking to purchase a new homeowner&#8217;s insurance policy, or want to change insurance companies in Evergreen Park, IL, give Martin Insurance Team a call today. We can help you with all of your homeowner&#8217;s insurance needs, including ensuring your home is covered if mold pops up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Having mold in your home can be dangerous to your health.
