What Is Green Mold?

If molds are present everywhere and play an essential role in life (decomposition of organic matter, composition of drugs, yeast and fermentation in the food sector, etc.), the fact remains that their development in a house is an abnormal situation. If there is green mold in your home, here are some information about these mold strains that can be found in a building.

Green molds generally indicate the presence of molds of Cladosporium, Aspergillus or Penicillium strain. If there is a development of green molds in your house (wall, bedroom, carpet, furniture, etc.), the situation must be corrected quickly, because they will attack the materials by damaging them and will release mold spores in the air potentially dangerous to the health of the occupants. It is therefore important to stop the presence and development of green mold before problems that can affect the structure of a building and the health of occupants get worse.

Green molds are very common in many homes where the winters are more severe. They can usually have a “fluffy” look and can often be found on damp walls, inside closets and carpets, and on damp fabrics and mattresses. The Penicillium, in particular, can cause sinus infections and inflammation of the lungs, while other strains of green mold can cause bronchitis and even pneumonia if left untreated.
