Mold Patrol with Wilton Construction and RevMed

May 22, 2023

Today we are also joined by Sarah Bradley and Dr. Dan Moore. Sarah is the Communications Manager for Wilton Construction. Dr. Dan is the owner the RevMed in Richmond, Virginia and he is a Direct Primary Care physician. We also have a call in to Jessie Black who is the Mitigation Manager for Wilton Construction.

We have a big issue with mold in Virginia with the extreme humidity combined with rainy days - especially in the spring. And that leads to a much higher level of mold than in dryer states. Mold grows wherever moisture or humidity is present. Because this is such a huge issue in the state, we sit down to discuss how to recognize if you have an issue in your home, how to get ride of mold safely, when to call in an expert and what the health issues are related to exposure to mold.
