Wondering how to get rid of mould and mildew smell from your basement or garage? It’s not easy; the odour tends to linger for a long time unless treated properly.
Good ventilation is key and there are many different suggested solutions including:
Common health risks of mould are:
- Chemical cleaners
- Deodorizing machines and products (like scented plug-ins and sprays)
- Putting additional fans in the area
- Leaving windows and doors open to let the sun and air in
Ventilation can be a challenge in a basement with small windows above the ground and little or no sunlight or outside air. Besides, breathing in the vapours of chemical cleaning agents and deodorizers can lead to other health issues.
A professional mould removal and cleaning service can ensure that the mould and mildew is gone forever. Trying to do it yourself can be dangerous as you could inhale the mould spores (and get sick) as well as cause it to spread to other areas. It is also not easy to see and often grows in hard-to-reach places like crevices and cracks.
