Having a musty odor in your home is never a pleasant experience. It can cause allergies to flare up and is generally unpleasant to live in. If you happen to notice this odor in your home’s carpets, it could be due to mould.The musty odor won’t be immediately apparent to you since you’ve become accustomed to it. Your visitors might point out a musty smell, if that’s the case; inspect your carpets for any damp spots. Mould can grow under the carpets as well; have a professional inspect your home to spot it and adequately treat your carpets to remove it.
