6 Places in Your Home Where You May Find Mold

Have you ever noticed that your home smells a little funky? Or perhaps you’ve seen some water stains on the ceiling or walls that don’t seem to be going away. These are both signs that your house might have mold growing in it.

Molds are microscopic organisms found everywhere around us. You may unknowingly bring them into homes through open windows and doors, cracks in foundation walls, or even the clothing we wear.

If left untreated, mold can cause serious health issues like watery eyes, respiratory problems, headaches, and flu-like symptoms. In this article, we’ll discuss where molds tend to grow inside our homes so that you know what areas to inspect when looking for signs of mold growth.

As with the other areas in your home, mold can grow on surfaces in the bathroom. It’s important to be vigilant and check for signs of mold growth in these places regularly.

  • Shower curtains and tiles.
  • Sinks and faucets.
  • Bathtubs, whirlpools, and showers.

Mold can also grow in the ceiling above a shower or bathtub due to moisture seeing through it and in walls behind toilets where there is water damage from leaks or flooding (if you notice a musty smell).

October is National Fire Prevention Month, so this week, I’m chatting with Capt. Dwight Smith and Steven Millhouse with Mobile Fire-Rescue in Alabama about their top fire safety tips for homeowners.

Fire Safety Plan

How do you put together a fire safety plan?

Stephen: The first thing is to actually have a plan. Many don’t even consider it until an emergency happens. You want to have a plan in place especially if you have small children or elderly people living with you as well.

  • Know the sound of the smoke alarm.
  • Practice escaping the home safely.
  • Know your means of egress, whether it’s the nearest door or window if you have a multi-story home.
  • Let your children practice crawling. You can make it like a game to make it fun for them.
  • Have a safe meeting spot outside, whether it’s the mailbox, a big tree at the end of the driveway, or a neighbor’s house.
  • Get out and stay out. Don’t run back in for pets, photo albums or anything like that. Call 911 and let the professionals do their job.

Dwights: To expand on having children practice crawling, making it like a game also makes it a reality to them because it makes them familiar with what they need to do.

Direct them to feel on doors, and tell them if it feels hot, then they should go to the window.
