FL-licensed, insurance-friendly water & mold restoration for Beacon Square homes and businesses — on call day or night since 2004.
Having mold in your home is never a good thing. Mold is toxic to many types of animals and humans as well, and this includes normally healthy adults, and children. It is very common for people to have their children’s best interest ahead of themselves, and many parents might ask if the mold in their home is more toxic to their children. All mold is toxic to people, but it could be much harder for a child’s body to combat mold toxicity than for an adult. If you think mold is present in your home, look into professional mold removal. Beacon Square residents should become familiar with some of the signs that children may experience when they have come into contact with mold.
Why Children Seem More Responsive to Mold Exposure
Although there is not much science or data to support the conclusion that children are more susceptible to symptoms, many parents report that their children are sick when they are not. Children may not have as good of an immune system that adults have, but they can still benefit from professional mold removal. Beacon Square residents should know that if mold is present in a home, not everyone in the home may be sick, or even have the same symptoms that someone else has.
What are Some Symptoms of Mold Toxicity?
Health related symptoms from mold toxicity are usually very mild, but oftentimes they are very similar to a mild cold or allergy like symptoms. Without mold removal, Beacon Square residents that have been exposed to mold might start to develop a persistent cough. Other common symptoms to have are irritated and watery eyes, or a stuffy or runny nose. These symptoms are often worse or exacerbated for people that have a compromised immune system, such as a child or grandparent, but it can also be worse for people who have other respiratory issues, such as asthma or COPD.

Common signs are a musty, earthy smell, dark spotting on walls or ceilings, peeling paint, and worsening allergy symptoms indoors. In Beacon Square's humid climate mold often hides behind drywall, under flooring, or around AC handlers. If you suspect it, we'll inspect and confirm before any work begins.
Many molds release allergens and, in some cases, mycotoxins that can trigger respiratory issues, headaches and allergic reactions — especially for children, older adults and anyone with asthma. That's why prompt, professional removal matters rather than wiping it and hoping.

QUICK response time! Very impressed with the professionalism and compassion my tech Frankie had toward my flooded home. He respected my wishes and the end result was extremely appreciated. I'll be recommending you to everyone I know!
Mr. Dry Out was outstanding. Matt and Frankie came to my home punctual and professional, got the job done in a timely manner, and were extremely personable. If I ever have water issues again I'll ask for these men personally. Five stars.
We had a slow leak under the kitchen sink and some mold. Not only were they professional and fast, they made us a great deal. Highly recommended — thank you, Mr. Dry Out!
Mr. Dry Out is the best there is. I live two hours away and they came as fast as they could in the middle of the night. Honest, done right, and they didn't overcharge us. The world would be better with more companies like this.
