Do not for one second think that you and the company are on the same page. They may not necessarily have the same interests as you because it is not their home. Due to this fact, take part in the cleanup process. Ask questions. A couple of good questions to ask are: Are the tools working right? Are they set up right? Are your employees trained in placing the equipment? Have they received training in using new methods? Has the equipment received proper maintenance?

Make sure to check the rooms yourself. Also check closets in the area. It is possible for the employees to miss certain areas when trying to figure out what needs treatment. If you find an area that they missed, contact the company immediately and set up a time for them to come back out. Mold grows very fast and can cause respiratory problems.
