    Lista de Verificación para Moho y Humedad

    Las esporas del moho solo necesitan un ambiente favorable, alimentos (madera, papel, alfombra, etc.) y humedad para crecer. Si no se detecta o se trata, el moho puede provocar efectos negativos para la salud, como reacciones alérgicas, infecciones respiratorias y más. Use esta lista de verificación como una guía básica para inspeccionar su hogar en busca de señales de exceso de humedad y crecimiento de moho.

    PRECAUCIÓN: Al investigar posibles problemas con el moho, puede alterar las áreas contaminadas al hacerlo, extenderá la contaminación al resto de la casa. Esto representa un grave riesgo para la salud de las personas con sistemas inmunes débiles, asma o alergias; por lo tanto, antes de realizar una investigación exhaustiva del moho, es mejor consultar a su médico o contratar a un profesional. Si decide realizar esta búsqueda por sí mismo, utilice el equipo de seguridad adecuado según lo recomendado por la Agencia de Protección del Medio Ambiente (EPA por sus siglas en inglés; www.epa.gov/mold).

    Hogares Saludables: Cómo Eliminar el Moho en su Hugar

    El moho crece a partir de las esporas, que se encuentran naturalmente en el aire y no se pueden ver a simple vista. Las esporas de moho actúan como semillas, haciendo que el moho crezca si las condiciones son adecuadas. El moho suele ser fácil de detectar. Aunque es posible utilizar pruebas para determinar la presencia de moho, por lo general no es necesario o recomendado hacerlo, usted puede detectar el moho rápidamente usando su vista y olfato.

    Tenga en cuenta que las primeras señales de moho pueden ser el desarrollo de síntomas similares a los de una alergia. Si detecta un exceso de humedad o un olor a humedad, pero no ve moho, asegúrese de revisar detrás de los gabinetes y el papel tapiz, y debajo de las alfombras. Estos son escondites comunes para el moho. Realice una inspección completa de su hogar utilizando la Lista de Verificación de Humedad y Moho de UGA.

    La clave para controlar el moho es eliminar la fuente del problema de la humedad.

These practices begin with education and communication and progress through surveillance, source reduction, larviciding, and adulticiding.
