Sinusitis Problems Resulting
from
Exposure to
Mold Growth
Q.
I have had
serious sinusitis problems since start of this year. Because health problems continued, I
contacted my insurance company. They found high levels of
Aspergillus mold,
Cladosporium mold, and
Penicillium mold throughout house. Insurance company only
identified two wet walls in 2 bedrooms and wet flooring in two bedrooms sharing wall with
garage. No explanation given for high levels in rest of house (?) My question for you is
could the high levels throughout house be due to rat feces in attic from previous rat
infestation (insurance company denied claims to clean)? [June 4, 2003]
A.
Rats and other animals do not eat mold growth.
Mold has no natural
predator to eat it. The primary reason for the presence of the mold problems
throughout your house is that
airborne mold spores from just one mold contamination area can
spread through out your house from normal air flow [e.g., your movement inside the house, air
flow coming in and out of windows and doors, and the continual movement of air caused by
heating/air conditioning equipment and ducts. If there is a serious mold problem in a house,
there is a good chance that mold has contaminated the heating/air conditioning equipment and
ducts. Effective
mold remediation often requires removing or at least disinfecting the
heating/air conditioning equipment and ducts after the
mold infestation has been effectively
removed from the house.
