While dealing with mold in your home might seem like a modern problem, mold has been a part of human history for centuries.

If you've read our previous guides on handling mold, you already know how to clean it up and prevent future issues.

Now, let's explore some fascinating facts about mold and why staying ahead with maintenance is so important.

Mold is Everywhere!
Mold spores are present indoors and outdoors all year round. While you can’t eliminate mold entirely, controlling moisture is the key to keeping it at bay.
Ancient Mold Medicine
Did you know that mold was used in ancient Egypt for medicinal purposes? Moldy bread was applied to wounds as an early form of antibiotic treatment—an early hint of what led to the discovery of penicillin!
Mold Can Grow on Almost Anything
Mold isn’t picky. It can grow on wood, paper, fabrics, carpets, and even food. If there's moisture, mold spreads quickly—often before you even notice it.
Mold is a Speedy Invader
Mold can begin growing in as little as 24–48 hours in the right conditions. The longer it’s left unchecked, the more damage it can cause.
Not All Mold is Dangerous
While some molds, like black mold, can cause serious health problems, others are less harmful. However, even non-toxic mold can trigger allergies and respiratory issues, making quick action essential.

Mold might seem small at first, but it can cause major problems over time—damaging homes and affecting health.

That’s why prevention and maintenance are essential.
