Is Your Home ‘Healthy?’

With all of the current concern about the coronavirus, Housebusters would like to remind everyone that one of the areas they should clearly be more concerned about is their indoor air quality.  This is what you and members of your family breathe every day.  Your indoor air could be making you sick!

We don’t want to scare anyone. But the air inside your home can often be more dangerous and unhealthy than the air outside your home.

This quote from the EPA is very telling:

In the last several years, a growing body of scientific evidence has indicated that the air within homes and other buildings can be more seriously polluted than the outdoor air in even the largest and most industrialized cities. Other research indicates that people spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors. Thus, for many people, the risks to health may be greater due to exposure to air pollution indoors than outdoors.

As an example, here are a few of the common symptoms you might exhibit if you have mold growing in your home:

  • Headaches/Allergies
  • Breathing/Difficulties/Coughing
  • Colds/Flu-Like Symptoms
  • Aching Muscles/Sore Throat
  • Nausea/Vomiting
  • Diarrhea/Constipation
  • Fever/Sinus/Congestion
  • Runny Nose/Sneezing
