Take a look at your attic’s insulation. Do you see puddles, leaks, or condensation in your attic? Does your insulation appear wet, thin, shifting, deteriorating, or falling? With a high amount of moisture in your insulation, not only will it not be doing its job, but there is a high chance that mold could be present, which is dangerous to the health of your home and those who live there. Black spots on your insulation are the first indicator of mold.
