Abstract

Mold growth (not spores) on surfaces indicates the presence of moisture in an indoor environment at some point in time. Mold proliferation is merely the direct consequence of moisture intrusion. Direct microscopical examination is the primary method to determine if mold or other fungi have grown on a particular surface. This analysis, while generally straightforward, provides the important answer to the question of whether mold growth is present. The growth can be described as the presence of vegetative structures (hyphae or mycelium) with or without associated spores or sporulating structures.
