Mold

Mold grows in outdoor plant and soil materials. Spores are commonly found in both indoor and outdoor dust. Mold growth is familiar to most people when it is seen as a fuzzy patch or stain spreading across  damp surfaces. Molds may produce chemicals that can be toxic if eaten. Seldom are these chemicals  found in indoor air, and they are not suspected to be a health hazard to the general public.
