What Are Molds?

Mold growth can start as soon as 24 hours after a water event has occurred. Mold can often be seen in the form of a discoloration or a stain. When molds are present in large quantities, called colonies, they become a health concern.

Molds are microscopic fungi that need plant and animal matter to grow. It is estimated that there are greater than 100,000 different species of fungi that exist across the world. These thinly spun threaded organisms produce spores that then allow them to spread themselves to different locations. Spores can be spread in the air, through water, or even among insects.

Where are molds found?

Molds are found in virtually every ecological niche and are found outside in nature, homes, and buildings. They are most prevalent in areas that have moist or wet climates. They are often found indoors in humid spaces such as basements or showers. Some authorities believe as many as 50 percent of all homes may have some level of Stachybotrys infestation.
