Mold destroys organic building materials, by absorption. It will actually migrate deep into raw building materials such as, your floor joist system. If this continues over a long period of time. It may be impossible, to remove the mold that's deep into the floor joists. HEPA vacuuming, HEPA sanding, and mold cleaning will only remove so much. making a fungicidal coating necessary. Fiberglass insulation will also grow mold. It is typically on the back side, on the paper, or it can grow on the fiberglass, if the Crawlspace is in poor shape, damp, and missing a vapor barrier. Dirt and debris will contaminate the fiberglass over time, allowing mold to colonize and grow on that. If you have HVAC duct lines running through your crawlspace, that will likely need to be cleaned and sanitized also. This will remove any mold that has entered the duct line and contaminated your indoor air quality. Crawlspace mold encapsulation service, can greatly increase the indoor air quality, the value of your home, and help protect against dampness and future mold growth.
