Keep your garage mold free


Molds can grow anywhere, they grow on paper, wood, the carpet, and even food as long as there is moisture present for a long time. Molds can cause terrible allergies and complicated health problems. The last thing you want is the growth of molds in your garage door.  So to help you a bit, here are some tips to keep your garage mold free.

As we all know, molds best thrive in moist and unventilated areas. The main thing you should do is to keep the garage dry and well ventilated. Letting the sun rays reach your garage every once in a while is a good way.
If you’re planning to have a garage, then the materials to be used for building your garage door should not allow the growth of mold. Coated aluminum siding is best for this. If possible, minimize wood in your garage.
Maintain your garage well; fix any broken roof, ceiling or wall to avoid water seeping on rainy or snowy seasons.
