We live in an apartment and the AC unit comes through the wall and sits half inside half outside. We’ve been here for over a year and a half and haven’t seen this before

Please help

We're having mold remediation done and the containment zones are not completely sealed with tape at the floor, the door, or the ceiling. Do I need to ask them to come fix it or is this ok? They are doing the negative air thing so maybe it needs a few holes to let the air in?

pretty positive me and my roommates have mold growing in our upstairs carpet, management is trying to convince us it’s cat pee even tho my roommate’s cat has never pissed anywhere before and we can’t even smell it. my roommate cleaned it a few days ago and it grew back like within 24 hours. we have no visible leak but we had the ac leak a few times in the past on the 1st floor almost directly below this spot. management just wants to replace the carpet but if it’s mold it will grow back right? it’s literally spreading into one of my roommates walls and his floor and they still said it’s cat pee even tho the cat has never been in that room.

Just moved into this apartment a few months ago, into an old, historical building that was just renovated for apartments. 3 months in, I notice this on the vinyl floor. It doesn’t wash off, any ideas?

Rained most of the day today, is this a form of slime mold? Also, is it harmful to my dogs?

Edit - location : Massachusetts

This is inside the air filter housing and the entire air filter is black so i am extremely concerned.

I just set up my tent after 10 hours of driving to find it covered in mold. It’s a greyish mold and does not seem to be very deep in the fabric but my entire tent is covered in it. I have mild form of asthma that does not bother me usually but i am 27 and want to take care of my lungs so that they won’t struggle to keep me alive later in life.

I don’t have a lot of time to take it apart and wash it, but

1. Can i actually sleep in this or is it risky / dangerous? And does anyone know the actual risks? I don’t mind too much feeling a bit unwell tomorrow as long as it does not damage my body long term.

2. Or, should i sleep in my car and buy a new tent tomorrow to camp in for the rest of the week?

3. What can i do to clean it and mainly make it less dangerous without taking it down again and in such a way that i can reuse it the day after? Or as an alternative i could sleep in a hotel for a night?

this was the bathroom ceiling fan intake? of the apartment i moved into/ considering moving into

what do you think

thanks

This is on our bathroom fan - I’m honestly not sure how long it’s been there but noticed recently and it doesn’t seem to be getting much worse over the past 2-3 weeks.

I assume it’s from humidity because of the shower and outdoor humid conditions, so I added a humidifier in the bathroom. I’m not sure if that’s what’s helping it not grow, but I still don’t know how to get rid of it. Should I just wipe it off?

I recently noticed grey spots on the siding and door. I initially noticed the window area looking dirty, but started to question if it was mold. Then I noticed these other spots. If it is mold, what should be done about it? I am only noticing it on the outside, but is it safe to continue being here? I rent.

Edit: I am located in the US in North Carolina

My mom is dealing with these tiny bugs (so small that she can’t see the detail on them even with a jeweler loop) and they seem to like this mold? Not even sure what kind it is. She thinks they might be book lice.. does anyone have any advice?

I live in Canada-ON. Its on my ceiling and was damp to the touch 2 weeks back. It has developed since then. Will attach a pic from 2 weeks ago compared to now. The area is about 2 inches or so. Furthermore, there aren’t any other spots except for this one. Whats the solution for this?

Our ridge vent has been leaking for who knows how long. We've only been in this house for 3ish years.

The roofer and my husband feel as though the plywood gives them no pause. I am concerned. The roofer said they could replace the ridge vent and carry on or we would need to get a new roof to replace the boards.

I just need someone to validate my concerns or give me relief that the boards will dry up over time. Don't mind the spray foam from our contractor who was just trying to help. We know it's a hilarious attempt at a solution.

We had a leak in the ceiling pipes in our storage/HVAC closet about a month ago. We live in an apartment so they’ve been extremely slow at dealing with this. All they’ve done at this point is cut open the sheetrock in rhe ceiling and test the walls for moisture, but when they cut everything open I noticed this exposed wood with suspected mold. Is this in fact mold? What other testing should they be doing? They had someone come out to do an air quality test but only tested our living room and bedroom telling us they “don’t test closets because they are not occupied spaces”. Looking for some guidance here. Thanks!

I lived in this university dorm room from May through August. Housing emailed residents on July 10 saying HVAC maintenance would be performed, and my floor was scheduled for July 16. I later received an email saying the filters were replaced that day, although vent/exhaust cleaning was postponed because of staffing.

On August 12, I discovered extensive dark growth/discoloration next to the HVAC unit. Maintenance opened the unit the next night, and this is what the filter/panel looked like.

I know you can’t determine an exact age from a photo, but does this look plausible for something that was replaced only 27 days earlier? What conditions could make a filter look this bad that quickly?

if it is i’m going to cry. these are two separate vents. i’ve lived in this apartment for two years. the maintenance team sucks but i am moving out in a month. i was told this was dust but it looks like mold to me. idk why i never really inspected it until now but i’m concerned 😭 i’ve been trying to identify the source of asthma flare ups. i’ve never even had asthma until moving here so….

Hi everyone, I've had black mold underneath the white seals joining the wall to the bottom of my shower for a while now. The room is small, I shower with the door closed and quite high temperatures so a lot of steam is heavily confined. The mold doesn't seem to be anywhere but underneath the seals however recently I've noticed my skin has gotten awful. I've had clear glass skin for my entire life but for a month or two now (basically I moved back home from college) I've noticed small spots coming up in random places in my skin. Noticeably more blackheads too and generally my skin just feels dirtier.

Is it possible that the spores are entering the steam because of hot water and causing this bad skin?

Side note, any way to remove black mold from seals????

Thanks for reading :)

And should I just toss this? Thank you.

Pennsylvania. I have a step stool that I pulled out of my kitchen closet/pantry that has this type of mold on it i checked the floors they are clean i checked walls and no sign of moisture. The walls are solid so likely no water damage. I have the same problem in my bedroom closet which is not near the kitchen one I had a gym bag grow mold on it same deal clean no water no sign of mold. Anybody have any ideas what I should do? I know the diy home kits are garbage.
