Don't worry.: We inhale mold spores every day. Our reactions vary. But this item you mention is not worthy of any concern. If you find you spend a lot of time worrying about things that might go wrong with your health, it's worth talking to a counselor so you can redirect your focus onto more fruitful adventures.
