Removal Of Wet Damaged Materials:
During a flood cleanup the indoor air quality in your
home or office may appear to be the least of your problems, however
failure to remove contaminated materials and to reduce moisture and
humidity can present long-term health risks. Standing water and wet
materials are a breeding ground for microorganisms such as viruses,
bacteria, and mold. They can cause disease, trigger allergic reactions and
continue to damage materials long after the water is gone. It can be
difficult to throw away items in a home, particularly those with
sentimental value, however keeping certain items that were soaked by water
damage may be unhealthy.
Some materials tend to absorb and hold water more
than others. In general, materials that are wet and cannot be thoroughly
cleaned and dried within 24-48 hours should be discarded as they can
become a source of microbial growth. Microorganisms brought into the home
during flooding may present a health hazard. These organisms can penetrate
deep into soaked, porous materials and later be released into air or
water. Coming into contact with air or water that contain these organisms
can make you sick. High humidity and moist materials provide ideal
environments for the excessive growth of microorganisms that are always
present in your home and may result in additional health concerns such as
allergic reactions. Long term increases in humidity in your home can also
foster the growth of MOLD. Mold is a major cause of allergic reactions and
asthma.
