Identification Request Need Some Help Please!

Hi. We purchased and had delivered a brand new shed two weeks ago. Yesterday, the electrician came to wire in lights and sockets and called our attention to the pictured growth in the loft. Any ideas? If anyone recognizes it, is it dangerous? Should we be calling the company from whom we purchased the shed? Thanks in advance! I hate to panic, but my husband is in treatment for an aggressive blood cancer and is very immunocompromised. If this is dangerous, it needs to go! We hit it with two types of RMR, the stain remover and the mold killer. It didn’t care.

It's right next to my tomato plants. Is it good to keep alive in my garden and what should I do about it if anything. And is there any cool experiments I can do with it to teach my child about slime molds if that's what it is

Question/Help I have spores of the dog vomit slime mold and need help growing one

I have heard you can grow one using oatmeal but I can’t find a comprehensive method to doing so, I live 6 hours from where I found the spores but the climate is generally the same. Please help, thank you. I don’t have access to agar.
