Finding mold in your house is never a good thing. While molds in nature play a vital role in the decomposition of plant, animal and other organic matter, by breaking down these items in the process of their growth, they are almost always detrimental when found indoors.
Molds reproduce by producing spores, much in the same way that a plant reproduces by creating seeds. These spores are small light and are released into the air where they eventually settle onto a surface. When a spore lands on an organic surface (this can be anything from wood or cardboard to cloth) that is damp or wet, the spore begins to grow. An ideal location is often basements or bathrooms where the humidity tends to be higher and the temperature is controlled. Since molds gradually consume and so destroy the items they grow on, they can damage building materials, furnishings, or other household items if they are not dealt with in a timely fashion.
Not only can mold damage property but the spores they release can lead to health problems for the family and their pets. The presence of mold in the house can lead to health problems such as headaches, skin irritation, allergic reactions, and breathing difficulties. People with weakened immune systems can be more strongly affected as they can developed infections from the mold spores.
On top of that some peoples reactions can be even more severe. Some molds can produce toxic substances which can lead to severe health problems in individuals. While not all mold will produce these toxins, you should always be careful around any significant levels of mold in the house.
