What to Do if You Find Toxic Black Mould 

Toxic black mould is an unnerving thing to find in high-traffic areas of your property, especially due to the mould’s capacity to spread quickly. A professional mould removal Sydney team should ideally be called in as soon as this mould starts to grow. Complete mould remediation will be required to ensure the black mould removal from your property. 

Mould is a common fixture in our environment as a natural type of fungus. Moulds reproduce by producing tiny spores that can float in the air and settle on surfaces, where they can grow into new mould colonies. Mould can grow on organic materials such as wood, paper, cloth, and food, as well as in damp or humid environments such as bathrooms, kitchens, and basements. Therefore, ensure your mould removal Sydney specialists are on hand to deal with these infections sites before you start experiencing the health risks.  

What are the dangers of black mould? 

Black mould, also known as Stachybotrys Chartarum, is a type of mould that can produce mycotoxins. Mycotoxins are toxic substances that can be harmful to human health. The potential dangers of black mould exposure include: 

• Respiratory problems: Inhaling black mould spores can irritate the respiratory system and cause breathing difficulties, coughing, wheezing, and asthma attacks. 
• Allergic reactions: Exposure to black mould can trigger allergic reactions in some people, causing symptoms such as a runny nose, itchy eyes, skin rashes, and hives. 

• Toxic effects: Some strains of black mould can produce mycotoxins that can cause more severe health problems, such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headaches, fatigue, and even neurological problems in some cases. 
• Immune system suppression: Prolonged exposure to black mould can weaken the immune system, making individuals more susceptible to infections and other health problems. 
• Structural damage: Black mould can grow on surfaces such as walls, ceilings, and floors, and if left untreated, it can cause structural damage to buildings and homes. 

What does black mould look like? 

Toxic black mould can have different appearances depending on its growth stage and the surface it is growing on. In general, black mould can be identified by its dark greenish-black colour and slimy or fuzzy texture. Full features include: 

• Colour: Typically black, or dark green. Can also appear brown or greyish-black. 
• Texture: Black mould can have a slimy, shiny, or fuzzy texture. It may appear wet or damp. 
• Growth pattern: Black mould usually grows in clusters and can cover large areas of surfaces such as walls, ceilings, and floors. 
• Smell: Black mould can have a musty, earthy, or pungent odour.
