Attic Mold Prevention
An important thing to remember about attic mold is that if it’s visible, it needs to be remediated immediately. A quick look into the attic with a flashlight is often all you need to spot attic mold.

Signs of Mold
The easiest way to know there’s a mold problem in your attic is the telltale presence of dark spots on the wooden beams. In this case, the mold poses a serious safety hazard to you and your home and should be immediately removed.
If you’ve ever gone into your attic and noticed it feels hot and stuffy, you have a ventilation problem. Little to no airflow causes humidity buildup in the attic, promoting attic mold growth.
Exhaust vents, (like those in your bathroom) that are broken or don’t vent outside your roof are another cause for mold growth.
Dripping water or wet blotches on your ceiling indicate that your attic is harboring mold. In the wintertime, you will likely see icicles forming on the underside of your roof.
Your nose knows best! Trust your senses. It’s time to call the professionals if you detect a moldy smell in your attic.
