Where Does Mold Come From?

Even the cleanest home can harbor mold. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), mold typically enters your home the same way you do – through the door. Mold spores are easily tracked in on your clothes and shoes. Mold can also get in through windows or the air conditioning/heating system.

Once mold spores infiltrate your home, they can quickly grow in humid places. That’s why you see most mold and mildew in the bathroom. Being that closets are typically small, dark spaces, they make excellent breeding grounds for mold. Additionally, cardboard, wood, fabric, carpet, and drywall all provide the needed nutrients for mold to flourish – and all are commonly found inside of your closets.
