When stowing away valuable belongings, furniture, clothing, or important documents, there’s a persistent threat of mold and mildew developing in storage spaces. These unwelcome intruders can cause irreparable property damage and create an unsanitary environment. Fortunately, climate controlled storage units Greenville NC can effectively safeguard items in storage and help maintain their condition over time.
Understanding the Risks
Mold and mildew thrive in environments with high humidity and moisture levels. Traditional storage units lack proper ventilation and climate control, providing the perfect breeding ground for these unwanted guests. When exposed to damp conditions for prolonged periods, your belongings become vulnerable to discoloration, musty odors, and irreversible damage.
Types of Mold and Mildew:
- Stachybotrys chartarum (”black mold”)
- Penicillium (known for its distinctive blue or green appearance)
- Aspergillus (occurs in different colors, including green, yellow, brown, and black)
