Copiague (11726) is one of the communities along Suffolk's South Shore; neighboring areas include Lindenhurst, Amityville and Babylon. Homes that took on bay water during Sandy in 2012 often developed hidden mold where drywall and insulation stayed damp.
Outages that last days let damp basements stay damp, which favors mold. Finding hidden moisture is what keeps mold from returning after removal. After flooding, materials that stay wet behind walls and under floors are the usual starting point for mold.
