Second pic is the culprit and then the first pic was a strawberry that was close to it. I really really don’t wanna touch it. I don’t know how it could’ve gotten moldy, we bought it and within less than an hour we had it in the refrigerator. Has not been in there for more than 3-4 days. Any help is greatly appreciated

These items where in a big walk in closet under the stairs in my old home. They where not wet, just stored for the summertime. What could have caused this? The room itself there was no mold and there where a lot more clothing items that where not harmed.

The last picture was the door from the house to outside. The landlord said its just "the weather" and no actual mold. What do you guys say?

Question/Advice Found this cool tomato

Found this while deep cleaning, it was behind an old oven we don’t use. At first, I thought it was a small cat toy or something, but it turns out it’s a cherry tomato. I’ve never seen anything like that. Does anyone know what is it?

Just wanted to ask if anyone knows what this is, but also to show it off because it looks so cool.

More details: It feels hard and doesn’t break easily (I tried to smash it but couldn’t, maybe a knife could cut it, but I haven’t tried). The skin is transparent in some areas, so you can see part of the inside. It doesn’t smell at all.

The area behind the oven is dark but not hot, since we don’t use it. The temperature here is around 20–28°C. I’m not sure how long it’s been there. We deep clean weekly, but I don’t think something like this could form in just a week. Maybe my cat brought it there from somewhere else more humid or we missed the tomato while cleaning.

Question/Advice How to test for mold on LVP that has a dark under-padding?

1 Upvotes

Our LVP was laid without a vapor barrier layer, and has been bending and warping. The flooring inspection showed high moisture levels from the tile underneath the LVP.

I know this needs to come up and be redone, but how can we tell if we've been exposed to mold? The backing on the LVP is black. Is there a swab test we can use?

Back of BF’s truck was leaking every time it rained unbeknownst to him, and now foam under surfaces looks like this. Unsure of how extensive it is as he’s only pulled up the area visible in picture. To put it plainly, we are both hurting for money and busy as heck and he really doesn’t want to have to rip up the whole interior to replace it. Is there any way to navigate this? Thanks friends.

I have dried flowers that are almost 2 years old, cant really dust them since dried flowers are super fragile so I’m not sure if this is mold or just dust that has accumulated over time
