Black Mold Exposure: What Makes Some Mold More Hazardous than Others?


by DoItYourself Staff

When it comes to black mold exposure, you should treat every type of mold as if it were toxic. Some molds are more hazardous than others because of the mycotoxins that come inside them. These chemicals are what is found in toxic mold and they can lead to serious health conditions. In order to determine if mold has mycotoxins in it, you could potentially send a sample of it into a testing lab. In most cases, you should treat all mold as if it were dangerous and simply remove it from the premises as soon as possible.
