After the heavy rain last month, I noticed a strange greenish growth starting to form on the ceiling of my bedroom. The smell is quite pungent and it’s making me worry about potential health issues for my family. How urgent is this issue, and what should I do immediately?

Yes, the greenish growth that you have noticed on your ceiling is most likely mold. In dubai and UAE, mold can thrive especially after heavy rainfalls due to humidity levels and temperature conditions. Mold growth can pose serious health risks, particularly for those with respiratory issues or allergies.
The smell you are detecting suggests that there might be an active colony of mold producing spores which can irritate your senses as well as cause more severe health problems if inhaled over time. Immediate action is necessary to avoid further damage and potential health issues. First, ensure the area is properly ventilated by opening windows or using fans. Do not touch or disturb the affected area as this could spread mold spores.
