according to the EPA and the CDC, is that mold can start to develop on surfaces within 24 to 48 hours of water exposure.
MOLD REMEDIATION -
Bleach, Bleaches the Mold and Does Not Kill It
Bleach when sprayed on mold, if fact bleaches it! What most people don't know is that when you bleach mold it softens the protein shell on the mold spore and makes it spit off a million little babies. So when you bleach mold, you can actually make it worse! I know... Mind. Totally. Blown. We've been told our whole lives to put bleach on mold. That is why we should trust licensed mold professionals vs old DIY hacks.
Bleach Can Contribute to Mold Growth
While it may come as a surprise, bleach can actually contribute to mold growth on a porous surface, which is one of the main reasons why you shouldn’t use this product for mold removal.
One of the most important things to know about mold is that it thrives in damp, dark areas.
Since bleach is only able to wipe up surface mold spores, it can't seep in to materials and effectively kill mold. This also increases the amount of moisture available, allowing deep-rooted mold to thrive rather than be removed. Always remember, mold needs heat/humidity or a water event to thrive. Don't feed it more by putting bleach on it!

Why hire a mitigation company to clean up after a disaster. The documentation process involved with a loss can be a burden in itself. The liability that is present with even a simple water damage loss can be a lot larger than initially thought. Water damage is compared to an iceberg typically we can only see about 10% of the water damage on the surface.
