Mold Types and Their Health Effects

  • Toxic molds: Worst of all are the three molds. Substances included in fungal spores are easily harmful to one's nasal passages and, if not controlled, can be fatal.
  • Pathogenic molds: Molds that grow in your lungs and damage your immune system. Viruses or fungal diseases could develop after further interaction.
  • Allergenic molds: Not hazardous, but might make people's allergy symptoms worse. If this sort of mold is contacted regularly, allergies may arise.
