What you need to know
All moulds are dangerous when they are in large enough quantities. Some people are more susceptible to mould and will react at lower quantities. But everybody can be affected.
When is mould dangerous?
You will hear people talk about dangerous moulds and non dangerous moulds. This is a misrepresentation of the problem. Mould is dangerous when you are exposed to high concentration levels. This applies to all moulds.
When you hear someone talk about black mould being the most dangerous, what they actually mean is that black mould requires less concentration to be harmful to the human body.
Common Moulds
The most common moulds that cause major problems to your health are:
- Penicillium
- Mucor
- Aspergillus
These moulds are extremely common environmental moulds. You will find them in:
