Health Implications
Mould becomes a serious problem when it lands on a wet or damp spot and begins growing. One such mould, stachybotrys chartarum grows on water damaged materials such as ceiling tiles, insulation, wood and wall linings. It is capable of producing toxins which can cause serious health issues. Individuals who have been exposed to this fungus show symptoms such as:
- sore throats
- allergies and sinusitis
- immune system suppression
- headaches and fatigue
- dermatitis
It is particularly harmful to those with respiratory problems such as asthma and emphysema.
