Molds: are ubiquitous, people may develop allergy to, possible upper or lower airway allergies may develop, treatment is available, but mold proof your place, basically keep it dry as much as you can

Many , yes, no: You may have no or many problems from this. If you're allergic to molds you'll get sinus symptoms,asthma etc. Even if not allergic if there is a lot of mold you may get toxic from mold spores causing fatigue,headaches, muscle/joint pain,poor memory/concentration etc. Most can clear mold toxins so feel better after a few days away. 1/4 can't clear toxins so need Rx.
