Molds spread and reproduce by making spores, which are very small and lightweight, able to travel through air, capable of resisting dry, adverse environmental conditions, and hence capable of surviving a long time.

Molds need moisture and food to grow, and their growth is stimulated by warm, damp, and humid conditions.

Common names of fungi include mushrooms, rusts, smuts, puffballs, truffles, morels, molds, and yeasts. Neither animals nor plants, fungi are classified in their own kingdom. The fungi kingdom includes a very large group of organisms, including molds, yeasts, mushrooms, and puffballs. Mycologists people who study fungi group fungi into four large groups according to their reproduction method. They modify our habitats and are essential in many ecosystem functions.

For example they are among the biological agents that form soil, decay wood, enhance plant growth, and cull plants from forests. Some fungi are animal pathogens that in worse cases kill us, while other fungi have perforrmaed miraculous cures.

A group of organisms that belong to the fungi kingdom. Although the terms mold and fungi have been commonly referred to interchangeably, all molds are fungi, but not all fungi are molds. Relations among dampness in house, molds and health effects. There are three relations within this issue that have received extensive studies. From a research and practical application point of view, it is important to know or predict at what conditions in the wall, the molds will grow and how much molds will grow.

The germination and growth are found to be species or types of species depends and to be largely influenced by a number of parameters. Molds have caused many damages, the disputes on who share the burden frequently lead to litigations. Insurance providers are or have already been dropping coverage on molds.
