What are Mold and Mildew?

Before Damage, What Are Mold & Mildew?

Mold is neither plant nor animal but a microscopic organism part of the fungi kingdom. It occurs in every warm part of the world with a moist environment.

The exact number of different mold species is unknown, but scientists estimate that over 100,000 different types of mold microorganisms exist. Statistics from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta report that at least 1,000 species of mold are common in the United States.
