After the Storm Clears, Mold Often Moves In
The Pacific Northwest is known for its rain and moisture, which means storm damage in
Camas and Vancouver often brings an unseen threat: mold.
Even a small leak from wind-driven rain or roof damage can allow moisture to settle
behind walls, under flooring, and in insulation. Within 24 to 48 hours, mold can begin to
grow.
How to Know If Storm Damage Led to Mold
Watch for these signs in the days following heavy rain or flooding:
● A musty smell that does not go away
● Paint that bubbles or peels
● Dark spots or soft drywall
● Allergy-like symptoms indoors
If you notice any of these, it is time to call a professional mold remediation company in
Camas
Why Storm Mold Is Dangerous
Storm-related mold often spreads through hidden spaces, releasing spores into the air
that affect indoor air quality and your health.
Do not attempt to clean visible mold with bleach or store-bought sprays. These methods
only treat the surface and can spread spores further.
