Mold is everywhere! It is simply unavoidable. It is in the air we breath and around us at all times.
Some molds are good and advantageous – mold puts the bleu in Bleu Cheese, they make wine better, and enable the healing properties of penicillin to work it’s magic in our bodies.
Unfortunately, there are thousands of bad molds – some of which can exacerbate existing medical conditions while other molds can be quite toxic and/or deadly.
From the EPA’s web site: “Some people are sensitive to molds. For these people, exposure to molds can cause symptoms such as nasal stuffiness, eye irritation, wheezing, or skin irritation. Some people, such as those with serious allergies to molds, may have more severe reactions. Severe reactions may occur among workers exposed to large amounts of molds in occupational settings, such as farmers working around moldy hay. Severe reactions may include fever and shortness of breath. Some people with chronic lung illnesses, such as obstructive lung disease, may develop mold infections in their lungs.”
