What Mold Needs to Grow Indoors Discussed in New Online Video

PEORIA, Ariz. - April 7, 2013 - PRLog -- Today, the IAQ Video Network and Cochrane & Associates announced the release of another online video to help educate the public about issues that may impact their health.  Their latest educational video discusses what mold needs to grow indoors.

When high levels of mold are found indoors they can cause allergies, trigger asthma attacks in sensitive individuals and even lead to infections in some people.  In order to grow indoors, mold needs moisture and food.

“Moisture is a key factor influencing mold growth indoors and controlling indoor moisture can dramatically help to limit its growth,” reported Paul Cochrane, President of Cochrane and Associates, the company behind the IAQ Video Network and the new public outreach video.  “Besides moisture, mold also needs nutrients to grow and mold can grow on virtually any organic substance. Most buildings are full of these organic materials that can be found on many building materials and household furnishings. We hope this short video helps to shed some light on this important issue.”
