Toxic Black Mold
Stachybotrys
Also called BLACK or toxic mold and will need to be professionally tested. You might find this mold in bathrooms or walls, as it can grow on wood and drywall. .
Health Concerns
This can cause severe health problems, including: fatigue, headaches, nosebleeds and breathing problems.
Common Mold
Aspergillus
is an incredibly standard mold type with around 180 different recorded variations. Only about 40 of them cause symptoms and diseases in humans. Because of its diversity, you will need to test it to tell you which specific variation you are dealing with. Most people breathe in Aspergillus spores every day without getting sick. However, people with weakened immune systems or lung diseases are at a higher risk of developing health problems due to Aspergillus.
Health Concerns
This can cause severe health problems, including: Common sinus infection symptoms, including sinus inflammation, sinus drainage, stuffy noses, sinus pressure and headaches.
- ABPA occurs when people experience lung inflammation cold and allergy symptoms, like coughing and wheezing. Fungus balls can form in the lungs or sinuses.
- CPA This disease is more long-term with the potential to last three months or more. It causes cavities to form in the lungs.
Common Mold
Cladosporium
It appears green and brown. Most commonly found on dead plants or fabric materials like upholstered furniture and carpets and sinks areas. It thrives in humid areas, like bathrooms, and lives indoors and outdoors.
Health Concerns
This can cause severe health problems, including: runny nose, sore throat, sneezing, coughing and asthma attacks. People with asthma and mold allergies might have worse symptoms than those without.
Black Fungus
Mucormycetes
It has a distinct white and fuzzy gray appearance with long fibers. Most commonly found on breads. As it grows, the mold becomes darker gray and can form in air conditioning units and vents with a lot of moisture and darkness.
Health Concerns
This can cause severe health problems, including: sinuses and lungs, headaches, congestion, coughing, fever, shortness of breath, chest pain and nose or mouth lesions.
Blue-Green Mold
Penicillium
It has blue and green coloring, and many describe its texture as velvety. It forms from flooding or other water damages, like burst pipes — you can find it in areas where it frequently rains.
It is of major importance in the natural environment, in food spoilage, and in food and drug production.
Some members of the genus produce penicillin, a molecule that is used as an antibiotic, which kills or stops the growth of certain kinds of bacteria. Other species are used in cheesemaking. the widespread genus contains over 300 species.
Health Concerns
This can cause severe health problems, including: problems breathing, damage organs and even lead to some cancers.
Wilt of the Banana
Fusarium
Fusarium can cause significant damage if left unchecked—it eats away at materials like drywall and wood and given enough time, walls, ceilings, and floors can crumble and collapse
Fusarium species are ubiquitous and may be found in the soil, air and on plants.
Health Concerns
These include localized infections of the skin and nails (onychomycosis) and eye infections (keratomycosis), which commonly affect people wearing contact lenses. More seriously, Fusarium infection can result in sinusitis, pneumonia, thrombophlebitis, endophthalmitis, septic arthritis, and osteomyelitis.
Brown Spot
Alternaria
Alternaria is a common household mold that can cause allergic reactions and asthma symptoms. It's a hyper-allergenic mold that can grow in damp areas of homes, such as bathrooms, carpets, wallpaper, textiles, window frames, and air conditioning systems. Alternaria produces large brown spores that are especially prevalent during the spring and summer months
Health Concerns
Has been associated with hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Common cause of extrinsic asthma (immediate-type hypersensitivity: type I) . May be related to bakers asthma. Acute symptoms include edema and bronchospasms, chronic cases may develop pulmonary emphysema .
Black Yeast
Aureobasidium Pullulans
Aureobasidium pullulans is a common indoor mold that can grow in many areas of a home, especially in damp places like bathrooms, kitchens, and basements. It can also grow on surfaces that often accumulate water, such as window sills, walls, and plant pots, and on materials like wood and wallpaper
Health Concerns
Inhalation of its spores can cause respiratory problems, including shortness of breath, coughing, sneezing, a runny nose, sinus infections, bronchitis, and even pneumonia. Allergy symptoms including a sore throat, headache, and itchy, watery eyes are also possible
Hypocrea
Trichoderma
Trichoderma, also known as common house mold, is another toxic mold. It lives in soil and other organic matter and commonly affects wallpaper, carpet, and interior fabrics contaminated with dirt and debris. Trichoderma appears as wooly patches ranging from white to green in color.
Health Concerns
Trichoderma allergy occurs when your immune system reacts to the spores of this common mold. Signs can mirror other allergies: stuffy nose, wheezing, coughing, and itchy skin. If respiratory symptoms worsen indoors or you feel consistently unwell at home, consider a mold source.
Soft-Rot Fungus
Chaetomium
Chaetomium molds are mostly found in areas that have been damaged by water, such as leaking roofs, damp basements, leaky pipes, or areas around the sink
Health Concerns
Allergy manifestations range from sneezing, coughing, and nasal congestion to more severe reactions including asthmatic complications and, in rare cases, systemic fungal infections
Botrytis
Ulocladium
Ulocladium is a type of mold that can grow quickly in homes that have experienced significant water damage. It's often found in areas with high moisture, such as bathrooms, basements, and kitchens, and can grow on wallpaper and painted walls. Ulocladium colonies can be brown, greyish, or olivaceous-black in color, and have a suede-like or floccose appearance
Health Concerns
Allergy manifestations range from sneezing, coughing, and nasal congestion to more severe reactions including asthmatic complications and, in rare cases, systemic fungal infections
