Why Mold Develops in Fort Peck Crawl Spaces
Mountain West crawl space mold is concentrated around two events: spring snowmelt water surges and winter pipe-burst events. The dry summer climate means mold often does not visibly grow until weeks or months after the moisture event. Many homes discover mold during fall inspection, months after the spring trigger. Pair with elevated radon levels common at altitude.
