About Aspergillus
Aspergillus is a very common indoor mold genus with many species. It grows quickly on damp organic matter and is frequently found in HVAC systems, on dust, and on water-damaged building materials throughout South Florida homes.
Health Effects
Can trigger allergic reactions, asthma flare-ups, and in rare cases invasive aspergillosis in people with weakened immune systems.
Common Locations
HVAC ductwork, air handlers, dusty surfaces, water-damaged drywall, and around AC condensation lines.
Professional Removal Method
Source moisture correction, HEPA vacuuming, antimicrobial surface treatment, and HVAC system cleaning.
Don't disturb it. Agitating Aspergillus can release a large burst of spores into the air. If the affected area exceeds 10 square feet or anyone is experiencing symptoms, contact a licensed Florida mold remediator before attempting any cleanup.
