Quick Facts About Mold Treatment
Mold treatment is more than just cleaning visible spots—it’s a process that addresses both the symptoms and the source of mold growth. Mold thrives in dark, damp environments such as crawlspaces, basements, and areas with poor ventilation. Professional mold treatment involves identifying moisture issues, removing contaminated materials, and applying specialized antimicrobial solutions to prevent the mold from returning. Without proper treatment, mold can quickly spread through the air and into other parts of your home.
Beyond the visual damage, mold poses serious health risks. Even small amounts of airborne mold spores can trigger allergies, respiratory issues, and worsen asthma symptoms. For homeowners with young children, elderly family members, or anyone with a weakened immune system, mold exposure can be especially harmful. Quick and professional intervention not only protects your home’s structure but also ensures a safer and healthier living environment.
Another key fact is that mold problems almost always trace back to excess moisture—whether from humidity, leaks, or poor drainage around the foundation. That’s why effective mold treatment often goes hand-in-hand with waterproofing or crawlspace encapsulation. By controlling moisture at the source, you prevent mold from ever taking hold again. Treating mold promptly protects your investment, preserves indoor air quality, and keeps your home strong for years to come.
What is Mold Treatment?
When it comes to mold treatment, Bactronix takes a science-based approach that goes far beyond traditional cleaning or bleaching. Their process begins with a detailed Certified Test, which measures the level of contamination and pinpoints problem areas. Once the data is collected, certified technicians apply BactroKill, an eco-friendly, hospital-grade disinfectant that eliminates mold, bacteria, and odors at the microbial level. Unlike harsh chemical sprays, this treatment is safe for people, pets, and the environment—and it penetrates deep into surfaces where mold hides.
After the disinfection phase, Bactronix applies BactroBlock, a long-lasting antimicrobial barrier designed to prevent future mold growth. This dual-step system not only removes existing contamination but also protects treated areas from re-infestation. The result is a cleaner, safer, and healthier environment—especially in high-moisture spaces like crawlspaces and basements. Bactronix’s proven method has become the gold standard for mold remediation because it provides measurable results, long-term protection, and peace of mind for homeowners who want a permanent solution, not a temporary fix.
Frequently Asked Questions
Basic Info
Can I use regular cleaning products on mold?
It takes more than a deep cleaning to remove mold. Yes, scrubbing with an ordinary cleaning product can remove the visible mold, but the spores are still present and can regrow and spread quickly. In just 24 to 48 hours, spores can develop into mold. These spores can get into the HVAC system of a home or business and rapidly spread. Professional mold remediation can help stop mold from returning and spreading.
Do all people react the same to mold spores?
Some people are sensitive to molds. For these people, exposure to molds can cause symptoms such as nasal stuffiness, eye irritation, wheezing, or skin irritation. Severe reactions may occur when exposed to large amounts of molds. Severe reactions may include fever and shortness of breath. Some people with chronic lung illnesses, such as obstructive lung disease, may develop mold infections in their lungs.
Why is it difficult to kill mold?
Harmful organisms form cell layers as they attach to any surface. The cells grow, divide, and the layers intertwine to form a dense protective layer called BIOFILM. The BIOFILM shields and prevents most sanitizers from infiltrating and killing the organism.

What makes Bactronix method better for killing mold?
The BactroKill Process is applied through an advanced electrostatic delivery system to ensure 100% coverage of the intended area. A “Surface Friction” is created that weakens and ruptures dangerous BIOFILM, allowing the patented agent to infiltrate the CELL ENVIRONMENT and destroy the organism.
Why don’t all companies offer a warranty on their mold remediation?
Bactronix uses a proven method called Bactronizing™ is a revolutionary new process that is leading the industry by providing a totally “Green” sanitizing solution to eliminate mold, mildew, food-related illnesses and other harmful viral/bacterial infections for all types of environments. It is proven safe and effective for human and animal environments and use nontoxic, biodegradable and EPA registered solutions. That’s why Bactronix can offer a 1 year warranty.
