Orlando's average relative humidity hovers between 70% and 90% year-round. When carpet gets wet, that ambient moisture slows evaporation and accelerates mold colonization. Mold spores need three things to grow: moisture, organic material, and warmth. Wet carpet provides all three. In drier climates, you might have 72 hours before mold takes hold. In Orlando, you have 24 to 36 hours. This is why emergency carpet water removal is critical. Delayed extraction does not just leave your carpet damp. It creates a breeding ground for mold that spreads into drywall, insulation, and HVAC systems.
