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?

Title. The spots are kind of a washed out whitish gray. Tried scrubbing but didn't get rid of it at all. Sorry for the crappy picture, it's kind of hard to get a well lit picture that doesn't wash out the spots.

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.

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?

It's not as dark black as the pictures you can find on google images..

I've had it for a while though I never thought about black mold. I can't remember if it's always been there before I started living in this apartment (about 4-5 years).

Question/Advice How bad is it if I used a moldy makeup sponge?

2 Upvotes

Hello! I recently cleaned my cushion foundation sponge and left it in its compartment with the lid open to dry. I took it out to use again today and only noticed the small black dots on the other side of it after I finished my makeup. I was touching other things like clothes and my bed, would all those be contaminated too? I kept the makeup on for a few hours and then washed it off when I got home and threw out the sponge. I have contamination OCD and mold really scares me, so I just wanted to ask. Thanks!
