What is black mold?

Black mold AKA Stachybotrys chartarum is a toxic type of mold, often found in homes and businesses. Black mold is often black or dark green colored. Black mold often produces allergens into the air. If you are not sure if the mold you're seeing is black mold or another kind, do not touch or disturb the mold.

Mold Facts:

- Mold is present mostly everywhere, inside and out!

- Mold produces spores, which are teeny tiny structures that are like seeds, used for reproduction.

-Mold spores LOVE moisture, so when exposed to moisture and water, they can quickly grow into colonies

- When the spores grow into colonies they then can produce allergens and irritants. 

-Mold spores can enter through AC systems, windows, doors, they can even attach to your clothing or animals.
