Understanding the Role of Molds in Health

Molds, including species like ketomium, stachybotrus, aspergillus, penicillium, and willymia, play a crucial role in decomposing materials but can be harmful to human health. Exposure to certain mold species can lead to toxic effects, impacting respiratory systems, mental health, and even triggering autoimmune and neurological symptoms. Testing for mold species and levels is essential for identifying health risks and taking remedial actions.
