While mold spores are a common component of household and workplace dust, abnormally high quantities of mold spores can present a health hazard to humans. Even if not visible to the untrained eye, mold may be present in your home or business and may harm your health – so if you're suspecting anything, you should do mold testing of your home...
Health problems associated with high levels of airborne mold spores include allergic reactions, asthma episodes, irritations of the eye, nose and throat, sinus congestion, and other respiratory problems. Residents of homes with mold are at an elevated risk for both respiratory infections and bronchitis.
