Asbestos has been linked to diseases for many years. We all breathe in minute amounts of asbestos daily since it is a natural occurrence. Since asbestos fibers are inhalable, short term exposure to high levels of asbestos in the workplace can lead to respiratory issues such as shortness of breath and coughing. Asbestos was classified as a carcinogen and the highest group at risk are older people who have been exposed to asbestos in the work environment for years.

Asbestos is linked to:

  • Mesothelioma, which is a type of cancer that affects the chest and abdomen lining.
  • Lung cancer
  • Asbestosis which lug inflammation that causes permanent lung damage and breathing difficulties
  • Gastrointestinal and colorectal cancers

Regular inspection in the workplace by certified mold and asbestos inspectors is highly recommended.

Mold Inspection and Laboratory Services in Monmouth County, NJ

There are hundreds of thousands of mold species, with about one thousand found in the United States. Mold can grow anywhere where there is water, moisture, oxygen, and an organic source. Molds propagate by creating small spores that are invisible to the naked eye. Mold is continuously floating in the air and does not pose a problem until the mold’s spores end up on a damp spot and begin to grow. Some mold grows on paper, wood, foods, insulation, and carpets, while some thrive in dirt and dust. Employees should report any signs of mold and request for an inspection to be done.
