Mold and Environmental Contaminants
Common Indoor Molds
- Aspergillus
- Cladosporium
- Basidiospores
- Penicillium
Whether dead or alive, mold spores often cause adverse health effects. Primarily, this contaminant affects the respiratory systems and induces hay fever-like allergic symptoms. Many of these molds, like S. atra, also produce mycotoxins.
Mycotoxins are generated and released into the air within the mold spores. Exposure to these contaminants can occur through inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact, resulting in symptoms like the following:
- Dermatitis
- Cough
- Rhinitis
- Nose Bleeds
- Cold
- Flu
- Headache
- General Malaise
- Fever

Allergenic Molds
These contaminants do not usually produce life-threatening health effects. They will most likely affect people who are already allergic or asthmatic.
The human system’s responses to allergenic molds tend to be relatively mild. Depending on an individual’s sensitivities, the typical allergic reactions include sore throats, eye and nose irritations, and rashes.
