The household symptoms of mold are widely varied and usually quite random, ranging from a runny nose to lung bleeding. Fungus infestations are a hazard to both people and the places in which they live. Aspergillus, Mucor, Penicilium and Alternaria are inside molds which can affect those who spend a lot of time within the particular dwelling. Cladosporium is an outside mold which can also affect those who live around it, although to a much lesser effect than the inside molds. Other fungus include the more harmful types of black mold which are known by their names Stachybotrys and Menoniella. It's time to learn about household mold symptoms.
The less harmful but still annoying molds that exist inside and outside buildings cause symptoms that can usually be taken care of with antihistamines or prescriptions written by doctors. The effects of household fungus include allergies and frequent ear infections, migraines, severe headaches that occur weekly with no known cause, fatigue, throat irritation and itching of both nose and eyes as well as a runny nose with sniffles and sometimes causes eyes to be red and tired. Some or all of these symptoms may be present with a mold infestation.
While these symptoms can appear to be merely superficial and a mere annoyance at first, there are more deadly molds that should be watched for. They're called black molds named Stachybotrys and Menoniella.
All of these effects can severely damage any person living within the environment and may be especially harmful to those who have a weakened or lower immune system such as elderly or infantile occupants. So, it is important to stay away from it.
Mold can have a variety of appearances, all of them immediately recognizable as mold but frequently the person is incapable of distinguishing which kind of mold it is. It is important to realize that most molds which are mere nuisances have a fuzzy look to them, grow in spots and come in a variety of colors such as grey, green, brown and black. True black mold, however, only ever grows thick and black, and always has a white tip on the outer edges.
Some colors include grey, green and brown, and occasionally black. Black fungi, however, has a unique look to it as it is always very black with white on the outer tips of it. Black mold can also be slimy, and all mold has a stale, repugnant smell to it. This smell can carry through the air condition or heating system and spread spores throughout the entire building.
In conclusion, the symptoms of household mold cannot and should not be ignored. Although the more common mold symptoms are relatively harmless and can disappear when the mold is removed from the home, the more sinister molds are capable of doing long term damage that no one wants.
