For instance, when moisture finds its way into the air ducts, behind wallpaper, or in between two walls, it is the perfect habitat for mold spores to live and grow because mold feeds on dust as well as drywall material. PLUS... Health Effects The most common health problems caused by indoor mold are allergy symptoms. Although other and more serious problems can occur, people exposed to mold commonly report problems such as: • Nasal and sinus congestion • Coughing • Wheezing and breathing difficulties • Sore throat • Skin and eye irritation • Upper respiratory infections (including sinus) Why Test for Radon Before You Buy Home? Testing is the only way to find out about your home's radon level. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Surgeon General and The Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services recommend testing of all homes. If you find that the home has high radon levels, there are methods to mitigate the problem. Even very high levels can be reduced to acceptable levels. AND... Radon is a cancer causing radioactive gas. You cannot see radon and you cannot smell it or taste it, but it may be a problem in your home. This is because when you breathe air containing radon, you increase your risk of developing lung cancer. In fact, the Surgeon General has warned that radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer.
