We found black mold inside ceilings and walls in their when my husband was remodeling the utility room. He didn't understand the dangers of it...neither of us knew what kind was the worst. This kind is called Stachybotrus (I may have that spelled incorrectly) and within the year he developed a rear form of cancer. I got full blown MCS almost immediately, but didn't know what I was dealing with....the doc treated me for asthma and put me on prednisone and inhalers....now I look back and wonder how I survived that. Today I am very sensitive to molds and can smell it in tiny amounts when other people can not. I know that I should be seeing a specialist and on anti-fungals and have my lung tissues biopsied and all that stuff, but I have no money.....so it goes. I think it would be good to have a website that spells it all out so people can easily tell what's what. If anyone knows of a site like that, please post it....thanks!!!!

How do you know when the mold is toxic? I would love to see some sort of reference guide. The mold in my New Orleans house was actually black and gross - other kinds were in there too. But here, there are molds that are mostly white and green - or something growing on my compost... How do i identify a mold that could be harmful??? The only rule I have is if it is growing on my house structure it is bad, growing on nature and it is normal.
