In recent years a steady trend toward urbanization has created new and unforeseen problems for built-up areas all over the country. The process of artificially creating non-porous surfaces such as tarmac and concrete over the majority of the ground area within the urban environment has upset a balance that has existed for millennia. This balance involves precipitation, drainage and the water table. With the extensive use of impermeable surfaces in towns and cities, water is no longer able to return to the ground as easily as it once was. The result is the creation of a lot of surface water and sporadic flash flooding in certain areas.

The statement that bleach kills mold is nothing more than an urban legend that has its origins from years of mold disappearing when sprayed with bleach. However, the fact is that just because it disappears, it does not mean that it is gone. There is no doubt that bleach is definitely a powerful oxidizing agent and capable of sanitizing a wide variety of surfaces, it is not a product that will eliminate cases of mold on the surfaces in your home. The active ingredient in bleach is sodium hypochlorite, which is extremely effective in ridding surfaces of the discoloration that is caused by mold. However, it will leave behind the micro flora that will allow the mold to return in the exact same place when the surface becomes moist or inviting for the mold. The reason that bleach is ineffective for killing mold is due to the fact that mold develops roots into a home’s wood, drywall or other surfaces. These root structures are called hyphae and left unaffected by bleach because the ion structure of bleach will not allow it to penetrate into the porous surfaces that the roots have attached to. Instead the bleach remains on the surface of the mold covered area and never actually reaches the enzyme roots that are save and protected beneath the surface. One of the most telling factors that bleach will not kill mold is the fact that it is not an EPA approved or registered mold killing agent. Verify this when purchasing any type of mold removal products container, if there is no EPA registration number on the bottle, which means it will not effectively kill the mold. Bleach is often recommended for ridding homes of surface mold, however, understanding that the condition will likely return within a few weeks should be cause for concern. The simple fact is that killing the mold at its roots can save time, money, negative health affects, and effort. Additionally, if the mold becomes too severe it may cause health problems for those in your home. "Killing mold with chlorine or bleach simply does not work, while you may see the surface stains removed right away, the micro flora is still present, which means that the offending mold will return without proper treatment", stated Motty Katz of Five Boro Mold Specialist INC. Mr Katz continued, "We at Five Boro Mold Specialist utilize EPA certified, natural, and organic mold removal products that treat the mold at the source, effectively preventing mold from growing back".

The simple fact is that landlords and property owners are responsible for providing safe living spaces for their tenants. However, after Hurricane Sandy this became a bit more difficult. With the major flooding and water damage that are literally thousands of homes with hidden, toxic mold lurking in basements, walls and other hard to reach areas. This has resulted in big problems for landlords, property owners, as well as the tenants that reside in the location. Due to this problem, there are many reports of landlords being sued for negligence, which results in problems for all of the parties involved. However, the biggest losers in this scenario are definitely the tenants. Toxic mold is referred to as toxic for a reason. It poses serious health risks and problems, especially when you are exposed to it for extended periods of time. If left unattended the toxic mold can lead to serious respiratory issues and eventually death. Directly after the Hurricane, the focus was on the structural integrity of homes and businesses. Unfortunately, this meant that there were several other, potentially dangerous factors that were completely ignored. This included the issue of toxic mold. Once tenants or home owners began discovering the issue the blame placing began. In most cases the landlords were bombarded with complaints and lawsuits from tenants claiming neglect of the grounds of the buildings. These lawsuits could lead to the condemning of the buildings or unlivable conditions. This would typically mean even worse situations for tenants. Now they had two choices: live in a potentially deadly environment or be displaced and have nowhere to go. This created quite a buzz and is still surfacing stories in the Brooklyn area. The issue of toxic mold is not one that will just disappear. The fact is that the problem will just continue to become worse and spread to other areas of the building. However, the method of treatment is just as important as actually taking action to rectify the problem.
