What Causes Mold Growth?
- Warm temperatures – Molds grow enthusiastically in warm environments, with temperatures between 70 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit as the sweet spots.
- High humidity – Indoor relative humidity levels 70 percent and above are a major stimulant for mold growth.
- Condensation – Condensation forms because of differences between air temperature and surface temperatures in a space.
- Inadequate ventilation – Less air movement means less drying, inadequate humidity control, and fewer disturbances to mold growth.
- Damp building materials – Building materials can become damp for a variety of reasons. In some cases, building materials are not properly dried after a water event.
Types of Molds
Acremonium
This type of mold is classified as toxinogenic. It starts as a small moist mold that turns into a fine, powdered substance often colored pink, white, grey, or orange
Alternaria
They are commonly found in bathrooms and bathtubs, as well as underneath leaking sinks.

How Does Mold Spread
Mold thrives on moisture and reproduces by means of tiny, lightweight spores that travel through the air. You’re exposed to mold every day. In small amounts, mold spores are usually harmless, but when they land on a damp spot in your home, they can start to grow.
Signs of Mold
- Dark spots on your ceiling, floors, or walls, this is a sure sign of mold growth. Musty odors and mildew are often signs that mold may be growing in your home.
- Respiratory and allergy symptoms such as coughing, sneezing, trouble breathing, and wheezing are common indicators of mold growth as well.
- High humidity levels such as condensation on glass and metal surfaces are a warning sign of mold.
