Mold is essentially fungi that propagate in very humid and poorly ventilated locations such as the corners of the house, the bathroom, the kitchen drawers, under the sink, and damp places. Mold reproduces through its spores and these spores like to attach themselves to wet places and things. Favorite places are wet clothes, rugs, and carpets.
