Mould is a type of fungus, and it’s all around us—quietly growing, spreading, and doing its thing… usually out of sight. But once you see it—on your wall, food, or ceiling—you know something’s not quite right.

Think of mould as nature’s recycler. Its job in the wild is to break down dead plants, leaves, and organic matter. Without mould, forests would be buried under piles of fallen leaves forever! But when mould shows up indoors, it becomes a big concern.

Mould spreads through tiny spores that float in the air—so tiny, you can’t see them. All they need is a bit of moisture, warmth, and something to feed on (like wood, paper, fabric, or even dust), and boom—it starts to grow. Bathrooms, kitchens, air vents, and recently flooded areas are mould’s favorite growth bed..
