Can the presence of mold in your home be easily identified?

If there are dark spots on your ceiling, floors or walls, this is a sure sign of mold growth. Musty odours and mildew are often signs that mold may be growing in your home. However, not all mold is visible at the surface. Past studies have indicated that up to 90% of mold growth is not visible. Certain guidelines state that invasive inspection is necessary to make a complete assessment of the extent of mold contamination in the home.
