If you are wondering what mold is, Houston Mold Inspection has the answers. Black mold is a greenish-black fungus found worldwide that colonizes particularly well in high-cellulose material like dry wall, carpet, wall paper, fiber-board, ceiling tiles, thermal insulation, etc. The fungus (black mold), before drying, is wet and slightly slimy to touch. The toxic mold grows in areas where the relative humidity is above 55%. This type of fungus does not grow on plastic, vinyl, concrete products, or ceramic tiles. It is not found in the green mold on bread or the black mold on the shower tiles. The toxic mold environmental risk should be your greatest concern, especially in property development areas where major flooding has occurred.
