   Moisture readings show whether a seemingly dry surface still hides wet backing.

3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

   The crew cleans hard surfaces after extraction and sanitizes the remaining affected area.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   Dehumidifiers and air movers address the remaining wet structure after sanitizing.
