Toxic Black Mold in former marijuana grow operations

Often Toxic Black Mold is found in former marijuana grow operations. Toxic

Black Mold, or Stachybotrys needs four things to grow and turn into a

deadly toxin known as Black Mold: Wood and other forms of cellulose such as

plant matter, water, heat, and air. Indoor marijuana cultivation offers all

four. Let's face it, homes were not designed to be greenhouses. Homes contain

dry-wall and other organic substances which make them susceptible to mold

growth if exposed to water. Here's the most important point though - if you

are looking to purchase or rent a home, you need to know whether it had

formerly been used to grow marijuana. The problem is this- even if the

marijuana is long gone, the mold problem may very easily have been left behind.

The high levels of moisture associated with growing marijuana, along with the

plentiful host materials available to the mold in homes, creates an

environment where the mold can flourish even long after the marijuana is gone.

Toxic Black mold can cause serious health hazards for individuals, and should

not be taken lightly. If you suspect that marijuana had been grown in the

house you are definitely at risk of exposure to this mold. The best thing

you can do to protect yourself and your family is to get a thorough

inspection done and have the air tested as well. For peace of mind and for your

own

safety this is highly recommended. If you suspect that marijuana may have
