Should I hire professionals for mold and asthma issues?« Back to Previous Page

After the rain last month, I noticed a lot of dust and mold growing behind the curtains in my living room. My kids have been complaining about wheezing more than usual too. Given that we’ve lived here for 2 years and just noticed this, should I consider hiring professional cleaning services to address both the mold and the asthma issues?

Absolutely, hiring professionals to tackle mold and asthma issues is definitely wise. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, humidity levels can often create ideal conditions for mold growth, especially after rain. The situation you described sounds alarming, given that dust and mold have appeared behind curtains which could be a breeding ground for allergens.
Firstly, it's crucial to understand that mold exposure can significantly exacerbate asthma symptoms in children and adults alike. Dust mites and other allergens are also likely present, contributing to respiratory issues. According to the UAE Ministry of Health and Prevention (MOHAP), air quality regulations apply especially when dealing with indoor environments like your home. I would strongly recommend a professional inspection by certified experts. They can conduct thorough testing for mold and analyze your living environment's overall quality. This step is key as it helps identify the exact nature and extent of the problem, ensuring you receive targeted solutions that comply with local standards. In Dubai, many residents face challenges like this post-rain season. Saniservice.com offers a comprehensive range of services including mold remediation, air quality testing, and deep cleaning to tackle these issues head-on. Their team is trained in handling sensitive materials safely while maintaining your home’s health. If you decide to go with professional help, ensure that the service provider adheres to UAE guidelines for indoor environmental quality management. They should offer a detailed report post-inspection detailing their findings and recommended actions. Additionally, consider implementing some DIY measures alongside professional assistance. Regular vacuuming with HEPA filters, dusting surfaces, and opening windows when weather permits can significantly reduce allergens. Using dehumidifiers in moisture-prone areas is also beneficial. Remember, the key to managing asthma effectively often lies in a combination of medical advice and environmental control.
