Fungus in your home, including mold and mildew, can be more than just an unsightly nuisance—it can also pose health risks and damage your property. Argo Window Repair offers expert advice on tackling this common issue effectively.

Identify the Fungus

• Location and Type: Identify where the fungus is growing and what type it might be. Common household fungi include black mold and mildew.

Preventing Fungus Growth

• Control Humidity: Use dehumidifiers and exhaust fans to keep indoor humidity levels between 30-50%.
• Improve Ventilation: Ensure that your home, especially areas like bathrooms and kitchens, is well-ventilated.
• Fix Leaks: Repair any leaks in your windows, roof, or pipes to prevent excess moisture.

Cleaning and Removal

• DIY Cleaning Solution: For small areas, a solution of 1 part bleach to 10 parts water can be effective. Always wear protective gloves and a mask.
• Professional Help: For large infestations or if the fungus returns, professional removal services are necessary to address hidden problems.

After Care

• Regular Checks: Regularly inspect your home for signs of moisture or fungus growth, especially during wet seasons.
• Window Maintenance: Ensure your windows are properly sealed to prevent leaks. Argo Window Repair can assist with window inspections and maintenance to prevent fungus-causing moisture.
