Health and Safety Risks Associated with Mold in Homes and Businesses

Mold can result in a variety of health problems, ranging from itchy eyes to severe allergic reactions. Most home and business owners are not aware that mold is lurking in walls and ceilings or in damp basements. Since mold thrives on moisture, it can be found nearly anywhere, including on walls, ceilings, floors, fabrics, carpets, and even in ductwork. Mold poses many dangers in the home and business.

The dangers of fungi can escalate quickly. The growth of mold can begin with 48 hours of a surface’s exposure to moisture. If left unchecked, the mold will begin to grow and spread. Short-term exposure to fungi can compromise a person’s immune system, resulting in headaches, fatigue, burning throat, and flu-like symptoms. Respiratory problems are common when exposed to mold, and mold can increase the intensity and frequency of asthma attacks. Individuals with certain health conditions, such as severe allergies and asthma, are more susceptible to the dangerous effects of mold.

How To Find The Best Agent For Your Business Insurance Needs

As a business owner, you’ve likely gone to great lengths to find the right legal team, marketing firm or other advisor for your business. However, locating an insurance agent for your business is often not given the same weight, so to speak. Having a genuinely beneficial partnership with your business insurance agent is also really valuable. Therefore, we are offering tips on how to find the best agent for your business insurance needs.

First, looking for the least expensive solution is not the best approach, and here’s why. You can call around for quotes from various agencies, but an apples-to-apples comparison of the policies can often reveal huge coverage differences — differences that can severely affect your business in the event you need to file a claim. Next, even when the quotes are similar, you often have to look beyond the cost to the experience, versatility and long-term value of working with one agent over another. The old adage, "experience is a good teacher" is true, and that basic wisdom can often be highly beneficial to you. Also, having an agent who stays abreast of changes in industry regulations can prove to be a real benefit to you by providing information to help you respond to those changes quickly and effectively.
