Molds exist naturally in the outdoor environment, where they contribute to the decomposition of organic matter like fallen leaves and dead trees. However, indoor mold growth should be prevented. Mold reproduces through tiny, invisible spores that travel through both outdoor and indoor air. Indoor mold growth occurs when these spores land on wet surfaces. It’s important to note that various mold types require water or moisture to thrive.
Indoor mold typically poses no issue unless spores land on damp surfaces, triggering growth. Molds can potentially lead to health issues by producing allergens, and irritants, and, in some cases, mycotoxins. Inhaling or touching mold may cause allergic reactions. Additionally, not only does mold in the home cause health complications, but it can also decrease the air quality and cause unpleasant odors.
