What IS Mold (Mould)?

This new blog is to help people find the resources they need to fight the mold in their homes, that very well may be adversely affecting their health.

First...a description of exactly WHAT mold is:

Molds are microscopic fungi, a group of organisms which also includes mushrooms and yeasts. Fungi are highly adapted to grow and reproduce rapidly, producing spores and mycelia in the process.

So, while we think of mold in negative terms, SOME molds can be helpful and even beneficial. But, for the purpose of this blog, we'll be dealing with the negative types of mold: those that can damage our properties and our health.
