Summary

In summary, Mold is present in all buildings, but mold growth only occurs if there is or has been moist conditions. Moisture is the main cause of mold growth and thereby mold problems. Dead mold is just as problematic as living mold. Mold must therefore be removed, not killed. It is the amount of mold that is crucial, not which species/genera that are present.
