What is black mold? The simplest explanation is that it’s
marked by its color, which is a dark black, as opposed to the
other colors of mold one might find in the house, such as green
and grey molds. Black mold is found in the warmest, and
wettest parts of the house. So, the places to look for it includes
leaky basements and possibly bathrooms with ongoing moisture
issues, or ones that aren’t well ventilated.
Why is it so dangerous? It doesn’t just look bad. Mold can
seriously damage a person’s health. The most serious result of
mold is how it affects a person. Mold consists of spores which
become airborne. Once in the air, people are in danger of
breathing them in. That’s where the issue starts: once the spores
interact with the lungs, they can lead to health problems.
