Safeguarding your pet's health: water leakage solutions for home
Water leakage might be affecting your pets in ways that you don't expect. Know how waterproofing and water leakage solutions can help.
Arjun’s dog used to vomit without eating anything funny. He couldn’t figure out what was wrong with his dear Snoopy. After a few days of this routine, he took his dog to the vet. After running a few tests, the doctor determined that Snoopy had been licking mould. That was causing him to vomit.
That made Arjun wonder where he would come in contact with mould. He went home and checked his house to find a large patch of water damage under the sink. And no surprise mould was growing all around it.
Arjun realised he needed a water leakage solution before any more harm came to his furry friend.
Common water-related issues that can affect pets

1. Contaminated drinking water
Water leaking from pipes can collect in one place, and your pet could drink it. It could also accidentally mix with clean drinking water. This leakage usually contains bacteria or parasites, and if your pet drinks it, it could get sick.

Areas around the leakage also get damp, which allows mould to grow. Mould spores can easily travel through the wind, and even your pet could lick it. This is really harmful, as it will cause stomach problems.

If your pet accidentally drinks seepage water, sniffs the mould, or eats plaster that falls off the wall due to leakage problems, they could get ill.
