Read on for details on a few common molds.
Cladosporium: Depending on its environment, this mold might seem brown, green,
or even black. It is common on wood, carpet, textiles, and HVAC vents, and it
thrives in both warm and chilly environments.
Penicillium: This fuzzy mold of varying colors is common in attics,
crawlspaces, and insulation. This is especially true if the land has been
flooded.
Aspergillus: Green, white, or gray in color with powdery spores and black
spots characterize this mold. Mold may grow in dark, damp places like cloth,
walls, attics, and crawl spaces.
