Mold, Everywhere You Want To Be.
Well I hope Visa doesn’t sue me, but it’s the truth. In the last 5 years it seems we have become fearful of mold, but for good reason. It’s not good for anyone. It’s everywhere and anywhere. Warm places with poor air circulation and moisture are prime breeding ground for mold spores. People don’t realize how unhealthy mold is and if you have allergies it can make you more sick than you normally get around the normal allergens.
Here is something you probably didn’t know that you should, especially if you like the scent and look of a real Christmas tree. According to this article from Yahoo! health, Christmas trees are another possible source of mold spores. Below is a short excerpt but you can read the whole thing by clicking the link at the bottom. Enjoy.
“Connecticut researchers have found that the mold count from a live Christmas tree rose to five times the normal level two weeks after the tree was brought indoors, and that can prove problematic for people with mold allergies. Their research was presented this week at the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology annual meeting, in Dallas.
“Christmas trees are another possible source of mold exposure during the holiday season,” said study co-author Philip Hemmers, an allergist and immunologist with St. Vincent’s Medical Center in Bridgeport, Conn.”
