Could mold from last month's rain affect my kids?« Back to Previous Page

Yes, mold from last month's rain could be affecting your kids. In the UAE, especially after heavy rainfall events like those experienced recently, moisture levels can rise significantly leading to mold growth. Mold spores thrive in damp environments and can produce allergens that irritate the respiratory system.

The symptoms you're observing – a musty smell in your bedroom closet, discolored walls, and increased coughing among your children – are all potential indicators of indoor mold. Mold exposure is not only unsightly but also poses serious health risks to individuals, particularly for children who may be more susceptible due to their developing immune systems.

In Dubai, regulations such as the UAE Federal Law No. 18 of 2003 on Environment and Protection emphasize that it's crucial to address mold promptly to protect public health. Mold can release spores into the air which can trigger allergic reactions, asthma attacks, and other respiratory issues. Given your situation, a professional inspection is highly recommended.
