Survey of airborne fungi

In recent years, the damage caused by mold in homes has been increasing. One of the reasons for this is the higher airtightness of houses. With high airtightness and high insulation, a humid environment is created, which accelerates mold contamination. Mold can develop if there is condensation on windows and walls, dust, and nutrients present. Among these, condensation can be said to be a closely related environmental condition for mold growth. Condensation occurs when water vapor in the air is cooled. To suppress condensation and prevent mold growth, it is effective to ventilate frequently to prevent humidity from accumulating indoors.

June has arrived, marking the start of the full-fledged rainy season. During this time, mold proliferation becomes active. While it is a difficult season for us, it is an optimal environment for mold. Data shows that the number of mold spores floating in the air during this period is among the highest, comparable to autumn. Mold can cause not only visual issues but also allergies and infections. If mold breeds in air conditioning units and spores spread into the air, the risk of such symptoms increases. Additionally, mold can develop on clothing and bedding, potentially triggering allergies. Therefore, it is particularly important to take measures against mold during this time. It is necessary to minimize causes of mold growth, such as condensation on window glass.
