How did mold get in my house?

Mold produces spores that can become airborne. When these airborne spores find places where there is excessive moisture they can begin to grow. Being that mold needs moisture, suitable temperature and organic materials, the most opportune time for mold to grow would be after indoor flooding or some kind of leak in the house has occurred. There is no guarantee that mold will grow every time that there is a leak, but mold can begin the process of growth approximately 24-48 hours after it has found a comfortable source. If you have observed mold growing on a structure it is quite possible that there is a greater problem going on in the unobserved areas behind that structure such as areas behind drywall. The best preventative to mold is proper drying of the structures as soon as a water loss is observed.
