Hidden mold in your home.

Hidden mold in a wall shows itself in the form of mushrooms

Mold is one of those things, its all around us looking for a nice place to settle down and grow.  Our houses are warm and made from wood and paper, all the things that mold spores are seeking.  Introduce some water and we have the third element which now leads to growth. 

Kitchens are notorious for leaks and things that happen involving water.  The cabinets keep these things hidden.  When was the last time you moved all those bags and cleaners and other stuff that lies under your Kitchen sink to look for leaks and / or mold growth?  We do not, and by the time we find it, it can be too late. 

This is a case of a leak in the wall coming from the upstairs behind the dishwasher.  Never was this noticed until water became visible in the form of mushrooms, which by then, was too late. Hidden inside the walls the homeowner had no idea the damage that was going on.
