        "text": "Preventing mold growth after restoration involves controlling moisture and maintaining good ventilation. Immediately address any water leaks, whether from pipes, roofs, or foundations. Ensure proper drainage around your home's exterior. Maintain indoor humidity levels below 60% using dehumidifiers, especially in basements and crawl spaces. Use exhaust fans in bathrooms and kitchens during and after moisture-generating activities. Regularly clean and dry areas prone to moisture, like shower stalls. Promptly dry wet materials and fix any condensation issues on windows or pipes. Good air circulation also helps prevent moisture buildup.",
