Mold is a type of fungus. These small organisms can be black, white, orange, green, or purple and live almost anywhere indoors and outside. Mold thrives on moisture and reproduces through lightweight spores that travel through the air. When mold spores land on a damp spot in your home, they can start to grow.
Mold spores can make you sick when you breathe them in. Inhaling mold can cause allergic and respiratory symptoms in some people, and extensive mold contamination can create more serious health problems.
Mold can start to grow within 24 hours of water exposure. Mold will continue to grow as long as the moisture level is high. If you remove all the water immediately after a flood, mold may not grow.
Mold is often first noticed from its musty smell. In some cases, it can be visible on infected surfaces. If you had any water damage that wasn't taken care of right away you can assume you have mold.
