black mold

Black Mold - Stachybotrys

One of the most common—and dangerous—types of mold is black mold. This mold is often greenish-black in color, and it can cause serious respiratory problems, as well as skin irritation. If you suspect you have black mold in your home, it's important to call a restoration company immediately.

This toxic mold thrives in damp wood and drywall and along with respiratory problems, it can cause fatigue and headaches. Black mold is especially dangerous for people with asthma or other respiratory conditions.

Green Mold

Green mold is another type of mold that is common in residential areas. This mold is often slimy and damp, and it can cause musty odors.
