Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Several factors affect the color of mold, including humidity levels, age of the mold, and amount of light it receives. A patch of mold that starts out green may darken and turn black as it ages. A species of mold may be green if growing in one environment, but be black in another environment. Color usually isn't a reliable way to determine mold species or risk.

Cork floors are naturally antimicrobial, which helps increase their resistance to mold and mildew growth. But mold and mildew can still grow on cork floors if you install them in a humid room or if they are exposed to moisture, like a spilled glass of water that you don’t clean up quickly. It’s important to keep cork out of high-moisture areas like bathrooms and clean up spills as soon as they happen to avoid mold growth.

Many peel-and-stick wallpapers aren’t moisture-resistant, so if you install them in high-humidity rooms, mold can grow behind the wallpaper. It’s best to reserve peel-and-stick wallpaper for bedrooms, living rooms, and other rooms with lower humidity levels. Not only does this minimize the risk of mold growth, but it also keeps the wallpaper from bubbling or peeling.

In most cases, it's not worth the risk of buying a home with mold. You should carefully weigh the pros and cons before making a decision—and there are far more drawbacks than benefits. For one, buying a house with mold opens you up to health risks since mold can cause respiratory and allergic reactions. If the mold is widespread throughout the home, the cost to completely remove it, make necessary repairs, and prevent it from returning is often not worth the cost savings of buying a mold-infested home for a bargain.

Dehumidifiers do not directly remove mold or spores from the air. However, by lowering the room’s humidity, spores are less likely to flourish when landing on surfaces.
