Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Toxic black mold on wood appears as dark green or black patches. It often has a slimy or wet texture and may spread across the surface in a spotty pattern. The affected wood might appear discolored, soft, and damp. Identifying black mold early is crucial because it can cause severe health problems when its spores are released into the air. Prompt remediation is necessary to prevent further damage and health risks.

Usually, when you have mold, you will notice that your indoor air quality isn’t what it should be. You might notice dank odors, for instance, coming from your carpet, and it may feel damp or spongy. Or you may find that your family members are showing more allergy symptoms than usual, from coughing and sneezing to itchy, watery eyes.

And, of course, if you’ve recently experienced flooding or you live in a particularly humid environment, that’s a good sign you’re at risk for mold growth.

Drywall can be toxic to the environment and to humans in some cases. As drywall breaks down in a landfill and comes in contact with other organic chemicals, it can create hydrogen sulfide gas or leach into the groundwater. Additionally, the CDC recommends methods for controlling the inhalation of drywall dust when handled. While the common ingredients of drywall—gypsum, silica, and mica—are naturally occurring, they can cause irritation in some humans.

If you see mold spores on walls, flooring, or ceilings, it’s best to call in a mold inspection pro to investigate. Similarly, if you smell signs of mold—musty, earthy, rotting wood, or stale scents—it’s time to call a mold inspection professional. 

Other less-obvious times when you should have your home inspected for mold include:

  • After flooding

  • After home water damage

  • Having ceiling or wall damage

  • Buying or selling a home

  • After a persistent unexplained cough or allergy symptoms 

  • Noticing discolored surfaces

The answer to whether it’s safe to use a moldy dishwasher is: It depends. Mold exposure affects people differently. It’s possible that even a small amount of mold in your dishwasher could contribute to respiratory issues and other health problems, especially if you have an underlying health condition. Mold is capable of surviving the high heat and detergent used in a dishwasher cycle, so it’s important to ensure that you act quickly at the first sign of mold, or contact a house cleaner near you to stay on top of any potential mold problems.
