It can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months to effectively get rid of Aspergillus, depending on the severity of the infestation. The first step in treating Aspergillus is to identify the source of the contamination and clean the area thoroughly. This can involve removing any contaminated items, such as damp carpets, old furniture, or insulation, as well as cleaning and/or replacing any contaminated air filters. After the source of the contamination is removed, the next step is to use an antifungal product to kill the Aspergillus spores. These products can be applied to surfaces or sprayed into the air. It is important to follow the instructions on the product label to ensure that the product is used correctly.
Once the Aspergillus has been killed, it is important to take steps to prevent its return. This can include improving ventilation, reducing humidity levels, and regularly cleaning the area with an antifungal product. It is also important to regularly inspect the area for signs of Aspergillus growth, such as mold or mildew.
It is important to note that Aspergillus can be difficult to remove completely, so it is important to take all of the necessary steps to ensure that the area is free from contamination. If the infestation continues after all of the necessary steps have been taken, it may be necessary to contact a professional for further assistance.
