Mold Types

Here is a list of Mold types, and where they are generally found. Not all molds are dangerously toxigenic, however all mold spores can affect people with hayfever, athsma, and immune defficiency. Mold effects different people differently, all molds, (fungi), should be treated with respect, unless it is a Morell Mushroom then it should be rolled in a beer batter, saute'ed in butter and enjoyed with a touch of salt.

As we find additional information on each particular type of mold, we will link to information on that, as well as provide links to outside resources that have useful information. If you have moldy gourds, or mold in your home, it can be costly to identify which mold you have, just treat it with respect because if you are careless it can be harmful to your health.

We will also provide some information gathered from our local health department Mold specialist on how to take care of it and how to prevent it.

The sources listed for each of the mold types listed below does not cover all the area's where these molds can be found.

This list may change as we learn more, and this is not a complete list but contains some of the most commonly found household molds.
