(NC)-Mould in the home can be a health risk - especially to those with existing health concerns or who may be sensitive to mould exposure. Mould can grow in your home in places you might not expect. Check these areas for mould lurking in your home:

Dishwasher: Regularly check under the sink to ensure the connection to the water supply line is secure and is not leaking. Also, check around the base of the dishwasher for leaks - keeping an eye out for stained, damp or warped flooring and water damage to nearby cabinets.

Washing machine: Odour-causing residues and mould and mildew stains have the potential to accumulate anywhere moisture is present - including your washing machine. The efficient design of high-efficiency (HE) washers use less water and seal more tightly than older, less-efficient appliances and are more prone to odour-causing residue and mould and mildew stains. To reduce this build-up use the Affresh Washer Cleaning Kit once a month. The dissolving Power Puck tablets penetrate, dissolve, remove or reduce deposits from all washers and Grit Grabber cloths are specially formulated to remove or reduce odour-causing residue from the rubber door seal of your washing machine. For more information about mould and mildew stains in your washer visit www.Affresh.ca

Refrigerator: If you have an automatic icemaker and cold-water dispenser, check the connection of the hose to the water supply. Check for mould or wet spots near and behind the refrigerator, keeping in mind this might be evidence of a leak.

Roof: Safely check the roof shingles, gutters and downspouts for buildup of leaves and twigs that might make it difficult for water to drain. Also check for water stains or mould on your ceiling and attic - especially around flues, plumbing vents, and chimneys.
