- If you can identify and isolate the source of water causing the mold growth, stop it if possible.
- Turn off the heating and air conditioning system and make sure it remains off until the damage can be inspected. These units can spread mold spores.
- Bleach will not sufficiently remove the problem. Bleach can provide a cosmetic solution, but it will not eliminate the source of the mold.

- See a doctor immediately if you or anyone else in the building is reacting negatively to the presence of mold.
