Dunrite Decon, This Winter – Check for Mould in Winter

Winter in Queensland often brings cooler temperatures and higher indoor humidity—especially after heavy rain, lack of ventilation, or drying clothes inside. These conditions create the perfect environment for mould to thrive. At Dunrite Decon, we want to remind you that mould doesn’t wait for summer to strike, and winter is an important time to check your property for hidden contamination.

Why Mould Loves Winter

During winter, homes and businesses are often closed up to keep the warmth in. This means less airflow and more trapped moisture from:

  • Condensation on windows

  • Steamy bathrooms and laundry rooms

  • Leaks from old roofs or damaged gutters

  • Poor ventilation in wardrobes or behind furniture

Over time, this moisture allows mould to grow—sometimes unnoticed—on walls, ceilings, behind furniture, or in corners of rooms.

Health Risks of Winter Mould

Mould exposure during the winter can aggravate:

  • Asthma and respiratory conditions

  • Allergies, sneezing, and skin irritation

  • Headaches and fatigue

For families with young children, elderly relatives, or anyone with a weakened immune system, the health risks of mould are even greater.

What to Look For

Dunrite Decon recommends checking your home or investment property for:

  • Musty smells

  • Discoloured patches on ceilings or walls

  • Peeling paint or bubbling surfaces

  • Excessive condensation or dampness

Even small signs could mean a larger issue behind the walls or in ceiling cavities.
