Mold and pests: a dangerous duo in your premises

Mold and pests

A dangerous duo in your premises

Many people know that mold is harmful to health and property. But did you know that mold often also means the presence of pests ? These two factors often work together – reinforcing each other’s effects .


How does mold encourage pests?

  • A humid environment is a great breeding ground not only for mold, but also for insects, mites, or cockroaches.

  • Rotten, organic waste - surfaces damaged by mold become food for ants and flies.

  • Damaged structures – walls or floors affected by mold make it easier for rodents to pass through.


What pests often appear along with mold?

  • Fruit flies – especially in kitchens and damp storage areas.

  • Cockroaches – love dark, warm, and humid places.

  • Ants are attracted to the smell of rot and mold.

  • Powdery mildew and other wood rodents – damage the structure affected by mold.


What is dangerous about this?

  • A double blow to health – mold spores + bacteria from pests.

  • Rapid spread – from one corner to the entire apartment or building.

  • Difficult to detect – often hiding in walls, under floors, and in storage rooms.


What to do?

  1. Eliminate the cause of mold – the source of moisture.

  2. Conduct a complete inspection of the premises for pests .

  3. Contact professionals to perform not only disinfection, but also disinfestation or deratization.

  4. Take preventive measures – proper ventilation, humidity control, and sealing.
