Why Is There Mold in My Attic?
Mold anywhere in-home or especially in your attic, is often due to the presence of excess moisture. Mold thrives in warm, humid areas. When conditions are ideal, mold spread immediately.
Floods or water damage in the attic, which also leads to mold, can usually be attributed to some key causes:
- Improperly installed roof exhaust vents
- A leaky roof
- Condensation that can be collected beneath the plywood roof sheathing
- Damage from ice dams
- A warm, moist attic
