With Twin Lake’s moisture-rich environment and seasonal lake homes, mold in crawlspaces is a common issue. IICRC mold protocols warn that elevated humidity plus limited airflow is the perfect recipe for colony growth.
🦠 Common Mold Triggers in Twin Lake Properties:
Unsealed Crawlspaces and Dirt Floors:
Ground moisture rises into floor joists and insulation, which absorb water and grow mold—especially when ventilation is poor.
Closed-Up Cabins for Months:
Lack of airflow allows any residual moisture from plumbing or rain to linger, creating warm, damp conditions ideal for spores.
Condensation on Interior Walls or Windows:
If warm lake air meets cool surfaces indoors, it condenses—and without prompt drying, it encourages mold on sills and corners.
Storage of Damp Outdoor Gear Indoors:
Fishing gear, canoes, or life jackets stashed inside may bring trapped lake water that silently saturates nearby materials.
🧠 Lake air is fresh—but it also brings moisture. Don’t let nature take root in your walls.
