How Can I Prevent Mold Growth In My Great Neck Restaurant?
8/29/2020 (Permalink)
Inhibiting Mold Growth with Precautionary Measures is the Best Course of Action
Cleanliness is critical in any commercial enterprise, but even more so when it comes to the food industries. Mold can develop anywhere there is moisture. An extensive mold infestation means the possibility of the Great Neck restaurant being closed while mitigation takes place.
Is Mold Really in the Air?
Mold spores are everywhere, indoors, and outdoors. The spores are microscopic, and no one can avoid them. The spores themselves are not the problem. The problem comes when the spores connect with moisture. They can then spread rapidly, damaging your building and the content within. Mold can cause health effects. Qualified technicians should handle mold remediation in your Great Neck eatery.
What Precautionary Measures Can I Take?
Preventing mold growth involves being proactive. It is much simpler to prevent the spread than to stop it. Here are some ways your restaurant can prevent mold:
- Schedule routine cleaning.
- Throw garbage out on a regular basis.
- Check for water intrusions such as leaks often.
- Inspect food for mold before allowing it in the kitchen.
- Seal open containers properly.
- Inspect for visible signs of mold regularly.
- Monitor humidity levels.
- Keep the kitchen clean and dry.
