The Hidden Dangers of Black Mold
Black mold (Stachybotrys chartarum) is more than just a gross problem in your home—it can be dangerous to your health. This type of mold makes toxic chemicals called mycotoxins, (MYCO means fungus in Greek) which are so harmful that they’ve been studied for use in biological warfare. Some believe these toxins may have even been used in conflicts like the Gulf War, though it’s not proven but what is certain is that black mold can seriously impact your health.
Black mold doesn’t just sit there—it releases tiny particles, spores, and toxins into the air. These can spread through your home, especially in your air ducts, and cause problems like headaches, tiredness, breathing issues, and even weaken your immune system.
