- Move valuables, electronics and soft furnishings away from the affected areas where you can do so safely, and take photographs of the visible mold and the damp areas before anything is moved.
- If the mold is in a rental, tell the landlord or property manager as well — the visit is easier to plan when the person responsible for the property knows what is happening.
