Who should do the mold cleanup depends upon various aspects. If your house has a mold problem, it is best to evaluate it before taking any action. If the mold covers less than 10 square feet of area, you can usually solve the problem yourself. However, be sure that you take appropriate protective measures before cleaning the mold. After evaluation, you can clean up the mold area with certain precautions. Use an N-95 respirator for this purpose and make sure it fits properly. Wear gloves that extend to the middle of your forearms. If you are dealing with any cleaning agents, use gloves made of natural rubber, PVC, neoprene, polyurethane or nitrile. Also, wear goggles.
