  • Black mold (stachybotrys)—You find this type of mold in areas with water damage or typically damp areas of a home such as a basement or crawl space.
  • Aspergillus—This type of mold is what can grow on food. You will find it both indoors and outdoors.
  • Cladosporium—There are more than 500 species of cladosporium. You’ll find this type of mold in damp areas of your home.

Professional mold testing is necessary to determine what type is present in your home.

Dangers of Mold
