Biohazard Remediation questions, answered by experts
Yes, mold on wood furniture can be dangerous, especially if it is identified as black mold. Inhaling spores or touching mold can make some people sick with respiratory issues, skin rashes, and eye irritation. However, some people have mild or no symptoms after exposure to mold. If you are going to clean mold off wood furniture, you should wear protective equipment to avoid direct exposure.
