Air conditioners and humidifiers are very beneficial during the appropriate season, but they also collect mold and can cause problems if they are not cleaned regularly. Mold grows in damp and humid areas such as basements, attics. bathrooms and closets. Check the house for damp areas that might conceal molds. Throw out all old or unused newspapers, books, magazines, clothing and articles that are sources of mold and mildew.
